As demand increases and pantries spend more on food, a shortage of donations compounds the problem. Lake Cares Food Pantry is spending much more per week on food and personal items that it did not anticipate needing when it opened its doors on April 4th, 2009. As that weekly deficit is addressed over the course of a year we project a major increase in resource needs to keep the Pantry afloat.
To further ensure adequate donations are received, Lake Cares works hard on community outreach and partners with other organizations in order to continue to serve the community. With a staggering increase in demand for food, we remain in need of even more food and monetary donations.
In addition to the normal food staples and money there is always a need for fresh produce. If you grow vegetables or fruit, please consider donating them to share with those who seek assistance from us to provide their families with healthy and nutritious food.
The Lake Cares Food Pantry needs your help; your donations and volunteer support are essential to the strategic services we provide.
