Today, Sarah seeks our support for canned food, which is the easiest and least expensive food for the families to serve and prepare: canned tomato sauce, potatoes, and refried beans.
Below, Army of Good Warrior Margaret Guthrie beautifully said it in her message of support to the pantry volunteers: “Thanks for a way to do good in this crazy world.”
I am proud to contribute to this work, and I imagine everyone reading this is, too. You make so much good possible, and many people need help more than ever. Thank you! It makes life meaningful for me and, obviously, for you.
The pantry serves about 425 people, who receive enough food for nine meals, which adds up to 3,825 meals a week. The work is hard and very physical every day of the week.
Thanks for doing good in this wild world.

Volunteer Sue, above: She works hard again and again, week after week.
The world sometimes seems chaotic, but nothing is more healing, hopeful, or uplifting than doing good in this way. Margaret got it right. Many of you know that, but thanks a million for all the good you are doing.
It’s never easy to be poor, especially considering food prices. But helping is always beautiful, meaningful, and uplifting. I know you all know that, but I need to keep thanking you on behalf of Sarah, the volunteers, and the hundreds of people who depend on it for their food.
