Meeting the Needs of Our Neighbors in Need
when Working at the Pantry!
A few Updates
Please be aware that all refrigerated sweets, as well as deli meats, yogurts, salads, i.e. everything in the refrigerator (with the exception of eggs and cheese), are donated items that are near or past their expiration dates. Please make sure that all of these items are given out at each opening. This means that the refrigerated items usually reserved for miscellaneous visits will be added to pantry boxes at the beginning of the month Anything left over will most likely have to be tossed.
Also, all bread and sweets on the shelf to the left of the door need to be given out at each opening. Many times, the bakery items have mold if carried over to the next opening.
For Miscellaneous visits, always give out the refrigerated meats first, before pulling canned tuna or chicken.
A few other reminders -
There should be fresh potatoes already packed in each box. Please check to make sure and be careful not to add more.
Most importantly, check each box before leaving.
- Make sure there is no frozen meat left in them.
- Place all bread back in the freezer.
- Any fresh produce that has been packed needs to be taken out of the bag to prevent sweating and put back in the refrigerator.
It seems that our numbers served just continue to grow and we are getting busier and busier. Thank you all for rising to the occasion and doing what you do to make sure the Pantry runs smoothly.
