📣 TOWNWIDE FOOD DRIVE – SCOUTING FOR FOOD! 🥫

Saturday, November 7th

The annual Scouting for Food townwide food drive is coming up, and Five Corner Cupboard needs YOUR help! ❤️

Donations are greatly appreciated, but we also need LOTS of helping hands!

🙌 Here’s where we need volunteers:

Saturday, November 7th: Help crate up the donations.

The following week: Help sort and store all the thousands of pounds food that has been collected.

It takes many volunteers to make this food drive a success! Every helping hand makes a difference as we work together to keep our pantry stocked and help our neighbors in need.

📧 Interested in helping? Email us at [email protected] for more information.

Knowing ahead of time who will be available to help is a BIG help in planning for the day! Please reach out and let us know if you can volunteer.

Thank you for supporting Five Corner Cupboard and helping us care for our community! 💚

❤️ A BEAUTIFUL SURPRISE FOR FIVE CORNER CUPBOARD! ❤️

One of our longtime pantry volunteers works at the La Quinta hotel in Windsor Locks. She often shares with others that she volunteers at Five Corner Cupboard.

Yesterday, she arrived at work to discover a wonderful surprise — a box of food purchased by a hotel guest specifically for Five Corner Cupboard! 🥫❤️

What a thoughtful and generous act of kindness! It’s heartwarming to know that sharing our mission can inspire others to help our neighbors in need.

To our anonymous guest, THANK YOU! Your generosity means so much to us and to the families we serve. You have reminded us that even a simple act of kindness can make a big difference in our community.

From all of us at Five Corner Cupboard, thank you for caring and sharing! ❤️

LOST YOUR SNAP or HUSKY?

This is from the Connecticut state website:

Beginning August 4th, the Department of Social Services has partnered with the state’s Community Action Agencies (CAA) to distribute the one-time $300 grocery card to those who have lost their SNAP benefits due to federal work rules eligibility changes. Individuals who have lost their SNAP benefits because of these changes should reach out directly to their local CAA. More information about the ABAWD changes are located on SNAP Time Limits webpage. If you need additional food pantry, soup kitchen or mobile food assistance, visit 211 Connecticut website or Connecticut Foodshare website.

Changes to SNAP and HUSKY Health work rules can be hard to understand. But many people will not lose their benefits. The Department of Social Services has made two prescreeners available - one for SNAP and one for HUSKY - to determine whether these changes apply to you. Find out more about how it will impact you on our H.R.1 changes to SNAP and HUSKY Health website and DSS Benefits and H.R.1 website , which answers questions about work requirements and exemptions for SNAP and HUSKY (Medicaid).
