Thrift Store
We are in the process of creating a thrift store for the pantry. This will create income to cover our expenses
What a deal!
Along with feeding many homeless, our pantry offers food for a small donation. Here is an example of a typical price. 1 box of cereal for .25 or 4 for a $1.00. Which would normally sell for $2.99 a box. They pay what we pay for food.
