Prodisee Pantry’s operates solely on contributions. Your monetary or non-perishable food donations allow the Pantry’s shelves to remain stocked and ready to serve those in need. And, those needs are constant. Currently, the Pantry serves, on an average, more than 270 families per week, some weeks over 300.
The generosity of so many individuals, church and civic groups, schools and businesses have allowed Prodisee Pantry to meet every need. And with your help, we will continue to provide food boxes to the elderly whose fixed incomes just don’t stretch far enough each month, to single parents who, like all of us, don’t want their children going to bed hungry, and to working families that find it takes only one unexpected bill to wreak havoc on a budget.
So many local churches, high school service clubs, middle school peer helper groups, and elemntary school citizenship clubs, as well as local business leaders that allow their employees volunteer time at the Prodisee Pantry allow us to continue to help our community through our ministry. We're very thankful that they donate their gift of time.
If time isn't how you can best serve, donating to Prodisee Pantry is easy. Many prefer to make contributions by check, while others prefer to shop for the Pantry. See how your donations and food drives can help the Pantry:
