Sarah’s drive to prepare the members of the Cambridge Pantry for the holidays is on us; you are helping immensely. Thank you. This is a tough time for people with food deprivation; many can find jobs for the holidays (only) and have to be outside of their homes.
A clean and healthy household is essential, especially for children, who are often alone during the day and asked to clean up while their parents work.
I’m proud to post the photo above. These were once empty shelves for women and people—especially older people—who needed dental denture grips, Efferent, Tampax, diapers, and pads. Thanks to you, those shelves are complete, and we are all relieved and grateful.
Parents often have to give up paper towels to buy food; coffee and shampoo are considered a luxury. The pantry is looking for not only food but also for their holidays. They all love coffee to get started on another busy and challenging day. Some have two or three part-time jobs this time of year.

Do they provide extra food for the long Holiday break? If so what is needed?
Thanks, Carla. I’m afraid you need to read the piece; the items have links to buy them. Thanks. Yes, the foods are about the holiday breaks and weekly school closings on holidays and when the kids need to eat. Thanks for caring. When you buy it the food is automatically sent by Amazon to the Cambridge Food Pantry.
Love the pictures. So surprised at how lovely your calla lily is. Didn’t know they could be grown indoors!
Best wishes to you, Maria and all your lovely critters 🙂
