Food Pantry

The first Sunday of the Month is our day to bring in non-perishable food for the food pantry at Salvation Army.  Through our support, we are able to make an effort towards relieving hunger.  Please put the food pantry on your grocery list and continue to support this ministry.  Some items of need: peanut butter and jelly, jello, pudding, peas, boxed meals, boxed potatoes, cereal, soup and canned fruits and vegetables.  Paper products, toiletries, feminine hygiene products, and detergents are also collected for Quanada and Madonna House.
