Many thanks to all the food donations we are receiving, The Pantry has received Farm Fresh eggs which are quickly requested by families. If you have clean empty 1 dozen egg cartons, the pantry can use them to give to the donors.

Many thanks for all the volunteers who help out from all over Norwalk and beyond, from those who provide food to the pantry and the monetary donations allowing the purchase of items such as milk and meats weekly.
