We wish to extend a sincere thank you to all parishioners who continue to support our pantry. With your help, we provide well balanced, nutritious food to our clients. Your non-perishable food donations are greatly appreciated by our clients. Here are a few statistics showing the importance of our work here at St. Joseph’s Church Food Pantry. The number of clients utilizing our pantry has increased 34% in the first quarter of 2024. We average 140 families walking through our door every Wednesday. In January, our client sign-ins equated to 1000 adults, children, and seniors being served. Donation recommendations include any non-perishable food: pasta, rice, canned chicken or tuna, canned fruits or vegetables, sauces in plastic jars, cereal, and soup. Personal care items are helpful as well: Soap, deodorant, shampoo, conditioners, toothpaste, toothbrushes, dish soap, and laundry detergent (small size only please). Thank you once again for your continued support of our mission to combat food insecurity in Berkshire Country! God Bless you all, Pantry Volunteers & Clients
