5 Things Food Pantries
Want You to Know
This Holiday Season.
1. Food pantries aren’t just for the homeless or unemployed.
We are seeing increasing numbers of working families, commonly known as the
working poor, Daryl Foriest, Catholic Charities of New York.
2. Life-changing circumstances
can happen in an instant.
Seeing so many families in need, especially children, reminds all of us how easily our lives can take a turn for the worse without any notice, Daryl Foriest, Catholic Charities of New York.
3. There are special
hours for working families.
The Feeding Our Neighbors
program offers hours outside
the 9 to 5 window.
4. Lean meats and
produce are much-needed.
With most food programs budgets being decreased, it’s hard for people to afford these vital items, Daryl Foriest, Catholic Charities of New York.
5. Food for pets is also needed.
When families hit hard times,
it’s difficult to feed their beloved pets.
Having a bit of help can be a big relief
