🤍 Food Pantry Open Tomorrow 🤍
Sunday, December 21 | 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM

Our food pantry will be open tomorrow to anyone who may need a little extra support.

👉 How it works:
• Please enter through The Morning Mug door
• Let a staff member know you’re here for the pantry
• You’ll be able to select the items you need
• Exit through The Morning Mug door

We know asking for help can be hard — and sometimes being seen asking for help is even harder. This setup is meant to give you privacy and dignity. To everyone else, it simply looks like you’re visiting a coffee shop 🤗

You are not alone. We’re here for you. 💛

12/14/2025

The food pantry will be open today from 9am-1pm.

Please use the Morning Mug coffee shop entrance.

You can bring your own bag or we have some for you to use. It is a pick what you need panty. 🙂 The shelves are full🥰

First food pantry 📦 Pickup & Shopping Day!
Sunday, Nov. 23rd | 11am–1pm

Pickup location: The Garden Shack - 10525 Dwight st

We’re excited to help support our community!
If you need a box prepared, please message us — we will have it ready for you at pickup.

We are still accepting donations, and will also be shopping using donated funds. With Thanksgiving quickly approaching, shelf-stable holiday foods are especially appreciated (boxed stuffing, canned veggies, gravy, instant potatoes, baking items, etc.).

If you are closer to Mt. Pleasant, donations can also be taken to The Barn Door, where Cathy and her team are making a huge impact as well. 💛

If you or someone you know is in need of meals or assistance, please reach out — there is no shame in asking. We are here for you. 🥰
