Today is Women’s Day, and we hope to re-stock the pantry shelf with the necessities of life for women. The pantry has run out or is running out of all of these items.

The Food Pantry works hard to meet the needs of America’s growing population of food-deprived individuals and families. According to Food America, 49 million people, one in six Americans, rely on food pantries for their food.

They receive a lot of healthy produce from donors, farmers, and food banks. Still, they receive little or nothing of the casual, heated family foods or the necessities of everyday life—the things that make people clean and healthy, the warm foods they can cook quickly.

We are helping to fill the void and boost hope and morale, and the projects Sarah is seeking today tell that story.

The essentials of life can be expensive and can often suck up desperate budgets and force awful choices between health and health.

We are helping to void that gap – the best detergents and the costly necessities like dental pastes, can openers, diapers, tampons, and fast, warm foods,  listed here today. They make life familiar, and they make life better.
These inexpensive items (the pantry often receives special rates) will help the pantry’s families who need to live more regularly and healthily.

Seeing the kindness and admiration coming into the Pantry Volunteers nationwide lifts the heart. I’ll post more; they are coming in fast and lifting spirits. Nobody can tell me that Americans are not kind.

Seeing this kindness and appreciation lifts my heart and reminds me why our nation is so great.  People are good. Coffee is essential, especially in arctic weather, but the children of the pantry families miss their pizza.

The messages are kind and touching—one Army of Good to Another. You can find them on Amazon’s Checkout Page.
