Feed 163 families each week at Community Pantry in Jacksonville
The Community Pantry pantry in Jacksonville is running low just as demand rises; $2,150 will stock it for 10 weeks.

Since 2022, our volunteer team has run Community Pantry every Wednesday from the back of the parish hall. We started with 29 families, and now we feed 163 each week.
Donations have dropped by about 49% this summer, while the line has grown every single week.
We rely on volunteers - 6 of us - and keep no salaries or overhead. I buy staples at wholesale prices at the Jacksonville market and keep every receipt.
Each $40 feeds a family of four for a week.
All of the funds go to groceries, fresh produce, and cold-storage costs.
Where the $2,150 goes:
• Rice, beans, flour and oil (wholesale): $870
• Fresh vegetables and fruit: $730
• Baby formula and diapers: $310
• Refrigeration and electricity: $240
I hope life is good to you.
