We’re back! New door, hinges, spring, handle, and paint job and the LFP is up and ready for the winter!

Happy Holidays! ❤️

Long time, no post! We’re still here and celebrating 5 years this next week. 🎉
Please note the pantry is down this weekend for some much-needed repairs and we hope to have it operational as soon as possible!

🚨DONATIONS NEEDED!🚨
We know times are tougher than ever and we’re asking for your help if you’re able.
Many items are kept in our home (pictured) so they’re ready to fill the pantry. This helps make sure no one stops by with it empty for longer than a day.
Our Amazon wishlist is the easiest way to help (link in comments).
We also appreciate anyone and everyone who has dropped by items directly in the pantry or on the west side of the house.
Many of you do so weekly or monthly - thank you!
Be kind and take care of each other. 🤎

“It’s not only receiving some food donations that will make a difference but knowing that people care.”
- Dr. Jane Goodall
We are so excited to be and “The Book of Hope: A Survival Guide for Trying Times,” a Celadon Books release by Jane Goodall and Douglas Abrams. In this "just at the right time” book, Dr. Goodall shares her reasons for hope, the kind that inspires us to roll up our sleeves.

👋🏼 It’s hard to believe a few months have gone by since our last post.
We hope you’re hanging in there all things considered and wanted to pop into your feed to say the pantry is still going.
It gets filled and emptied almost daily so sometimes it feels daunting to post for a need of donations because it’s always there (see pinned post for ideas).
We appreciate when you’re able to give what non-perishables you can for those right in your neighborhood who need it.
Keep taking care of one another. A can of food, a smile, a text or a phone call CAN make a difference when things seem dark. Be the light.
Needed donations (Amazon wishlist linked in comments)
We will accept any and all non-perishable items, but here’s what we could use help with…
🟡Ramen, Mac & cheese, pasta
🟡Soap, deodorant or personal items (we have plenty of feminine hygiene supplies)
🟡Canned meat (tuna, chicken)
🟡Peanut (nut) butter
🟡Bottled water or juice boxes
🟡Canned veggies & fruit
We don’t post updates as often, but please know we’re still going strong and the need is still here.
We appreciate all who contribute once or many times over again. We couldn’t do it without your support! ♥️

If a pie represented the estimated $98 trillion of household wealth in the United States, nine pieces, or 90% of the pie, would go to the wealthiest 20% in the country, according to a National Bureau Of Economic Research study of household wealth trends in the united states from 1962 to 2016. Out of those nine slices, four would go to just the top 1%.
