Pantry Now Accepting Holiday Food Donations

  Hurricane Irma took it's toll on the Lady Lake area, leaving the pantry without power for a full week.  Without any power, we were forced to close.  During that time we unfortunately lost all perishable goods in our freezers and refrigerators.  Thanks to our generous community, we did have reserve funds to continue to provide frozen meat to our clients.  Plans are in place to look into generators to at least keep lights and some cold storage capacity up and running should there be the need in the future.

   God blesses our pantry daily!  Even with this little setback, we assisted 309 families during the month of September.  To date this year we have provided 3,119 families with over 9,000 bags of groceries!

   Now, it is time to collect for our Thanksgiving and Christmas Basket donations.  Each year we provide Turkeys or Hams and all the fixings to our families for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  You may help by donating any of the following items by November 1st or December 1st respectively.

Boxed Holiday Desert

Boxed Cornbread Mix

Boxed Jell-O / Pudding Mix

Boxed or Bagged Turkey Stuffing Mix

Boxed Mashed Potatoes / Sweet Potatoes Mixes
