Sarah’s request for food support for the Cambridge Food Pantry this weekend was simple, inexpensive, easy to cook and prepare, and essential: Scalloped potatoes and evaporated milk. By Saturday night, so many of both had been purchased by the Army of Good that she had to take them off the Wish List. She didn’t have room to store them.
Both sold out on Saturday. Thank you. In their place – this was a weekend project – she asked that we purchase and send this Sunday:
Your commitment is impressive. We sent diapers earlier in the week – a lot arrived, but we didn’t ask for Size 1; several people have asked for that. If we even get a dozen there, that will be a great success. If there are more, they will be put to good use.
I appreciate your support. More importantly, so do the people coming to the pantry for food support. Their lives are not easy, but we have made them better. Sarah works tirelessly to keep the costs of our donations significantly lower than grocery stores. We are also helping her and her volunteers, and she deserves it.
The diaper 1’s are on the list. Monday, we’ll go after peanut butter again.
That item and nine others are on the Cambridge Amazon Food Pantry, which you can access anytime, day or night.
If you want to donate other items, you can access our Wish List 24/7 by clicking the green button at the bottom right of this post or visiting [link to the Wish List]. Your support is invaluable to us.
The Wish List is updated several times every day.
I’m not sure. If I understood you when you said Sarah tries to keep the cost lower than the grocery store, Does that mean the people come in and purchase the items or she likes us to purchase at a lower cost ?
No, it means she looks for the items that cost the least for you. They are not negotiable; the price is Amazon or whoever charges. She can’t change it. That’s why I price everything, so you know what it will cost you if you donate. Thanks for asking.
