Senior Care Pantry

Help Stock Our Pantry

Born from the 2015 floods, our pantry now helps seniors waiting for Meals on Wheels by providing boxes of non-perishable food, bottled water, toiletries, and household items. Donations should be easy to open, easy to chew, and require little preparation. Please, no economy-size containers—single-serve or small packages only.

Monetary contributions are welcome or purchase and ship directly via our Amazon Wishlist.
