FOOF PANTRY REPORT/SHORTAGES FOR MAY 8

What we need for the May 15 distribution: (1) canned vegetables (short approximately 275 cans), (2) dry, unsweetened cereal (short approximately 210 boxes), (3) pasta sauce (short approx, 156 bottles/cans), (4) canned fruit (short approximately 138 cans), (5) “meals in a can” (stew, canned pasta, chili, etc. –short c.113 cans), (6) pasta (short approximately 70 boxes), and (7) canned beans (short 55 cans). Shortages for the 22 May distribution: the above plus (8) canned soup. (We believe we have sufficient mac & cheese for two weeks and enough dry rice/beans and canned tuna/meat/fish for three weeks.)

We also need: Similac Blue and Similac Orange baby formula, and/or domestic or foreign equivalents/substitutes, Pediasure, sizes 4, 5 and 6 diapers, and baby wipes. Also needed are adult unisex pull-ups sizes small, medium and large.

Plastic newspaper bags and plastic grocery bags are always needed.

Over the week ending with the 8 May distribution, we received approximately 2.28 tons of non-perishable food, and gave out some 2.86 tons of non-perishable food and about the same amount of perishable food to 294 families.

We need your help in order to help those in need!
