Yesterday, An Avalance Of Love And Compassion Hit The Cambridge Food Pantry. You Sent It. Again.

by Jon Katz

Volunteers at the Cambridge Food Pantry, your hard work and dedication have made a significant impact. From unpacking and recording food to ensuring it’s placed on the shelves, your efforts have not gone unnoticed. You are the backbone of the pantry operations, and they couldn’t do it without you.

I’ve included the boxes in which your donations came in. They are all recycled. They filled an entire Amazon delivery truck. The Amazon drivers are in awe of you. So am I. So is Sarah.

They are very, very grateful to you at the food pantry. I’m told every day we are blessings and saviors. It makes me feel as if my life is worth something. I hope you feel the same way.

I am personally and deeply grateful for your contributions. Your selfless actions have made a difference in the lives of many, and for that, we are truly thankful.  These side dishes will fill some shelves; hopefully, there will be enough to store. A new storage room is underway. It ought to be named “Army of Good.”

Messages from the Army Of Good: “Thank you, dear people, for helping so many – Martha G. Powell.

“Great work Kyle! From Amy In NY.”

(You can message Kyle and all of the Cambridge Pantry Volunteers by writing a message on the Amazon checkout page. And thanks, they love receiving them.)

Your donations are spread out on tables for recording and distributing.

I’m starting a new thing called Pantry Art, close in photos of the food you are sending.

Terry is a hero to me. She works all kinds of hours quietly, efficiently, and without complaint. She is quite remarkable. She often puts what you send on the shelves.

 

 

More yesterday, boxes and boxes.

Kyle is the food back’s Amazon/Army of Good Food Co-Ordinator; it’s almost a full-time job.
