The Blessing Pantry

A reminder that our pantry is NOT a place to leave opened, half-eaten, home-cooked, expired, or rotten food.

Today we had to dispose of spoiled bananas and other food left behind that created a strong odor in the pantry. This is an ongoing issue, and frankly, it is unacceptable. Leaving unsafe food creates sanitation concerns, attracts pests, and puts vulnerable community members at risk.

If you would like to donate food, please use the designated donation bins by the ramp entrance and only donate unopened, non-expired items that are safe for others to receive. If you are unsure what is an acceptable donation, ask: 203-888-6596.

We are grateful for the many thoughtful donations we receive — but we need everyone to use common sense and help us keep the pantry clean, safe, and respectful for all.
