How To Stretch Your Donation Dollars

The Shepherd’s Pantry is grateful for all your donations. If you are thinking of buying food to donate to the Pantry please note that we can purchase food at area Food Banks at very favorable prices. This is because the Food Banks are able to purchase overstock, closeout and code date items in very large quantities. We can usually purchase at least three times as much food per dollar from the Food Banks than at area supermarkets.

So we can stretch your donation dollars to feed more needy families.

Food and Personal Care Items

You can donate food and/or personal care items by bringing them to the Church Hall any Monday morning between 7:30am and 11:00am. We can always use the following types of items:

  • Pasta and Pasta Sauce
  • Peanut Butter, Jelly
  • Canned Vegetables and Fruit
  • Baked Beans
  • Baking Products
  • Soups
  • Tuna Fish
  • Canned Chicken

Monetary Donations

You can support the Shepherd’s Pantry by:
