It is with a heavy heart that I announce I am closing the pantry. Unfortunately, we have had a lot of vandalism from local kids. Food is getting wasted and our yard trashed. Without parental support, I see no way to get it to stop. :'(

I will be posting other local pantries in the coming days in the event anyone would like to contribute or needs food.
