For our Gifts for Kid's families: This year we are trying something new! We are giving you your family number right after we enter your information into the computer. After you've turned in your form/s, you should receive your family number slip at the food pantry within one to two weeks, depending on when our Kiwanian reps stop into the food pantry to drop them off. Once you receive that slip, know that you are in our system and you're all good to go to pick up gifts on Thursday, December 11th at the Firehall, no additional steps! They are even printed on orange paper to make them easier to keep track of!

The slips will also confirm your name and the number of children who are in your family, if you notice any discrepancies you can reach out to us here via messenger or email [email protected].

(A note that we may not have a Kiwanis rep at the food pantry this Friday, 10/03/25 to pick up forms or drop off these slips so don't panic if you don't get your orange slip on your next trip!)

We have been giving out dates for quite a while now. And although we don’t recommend trying to live only off of dates, they are a nice source of nutrition. Try dating for snacks! Tear them up in the mornings oatmeal or granola, fill them with peanut butter, or toss them into a blender with cottage cheese ( a 16 oz container ), a splash of vanilla, 1/4 cup honey, pinch of salt, and 6 dates chopped up for a high protein salted caramel ice cream.

Budget friendly meal - all ingredients around $15, and leftover ingredients to go towards another meal.

Ranch chicken, baked potatoes, and broccoli with cheese sauce. The cheese sauce and broccoli could also be loaded into the baked potato.

If purchasing the shaker of ranch instead of the packet, it can be used in a variety of ways from ranch Chex mix to ranch grilled cheese to ranch wings. It’s an easy way to add a flavor that a majority of people will eat.

Prices shown are current at Edinboro Walmart.
