ST. MARTIN’S FOOD PANTRY REPORT - APRIL 5, 2026

ST. MARTIN’S FOOD PANTRY St.

Martin’s Pantry provided food for 306 families. We are deeply grateful to all the pantry’s supporters and volunteers, including the parish communities of St. Francis, St. Rose of Lima, St. Bartholomew, Our Lady of Mercy, Our Lady of Grace, and St. Martin’s. At this time, we do not have any additional external sources of food and rely entirely on contributions from our parish communities.

To help us meet current demand, our most urgent needs are:

1. “Meals in a can” (1 lb. cans) such as ravioli, lasagna, or spaghetti with meat (Biweekly need: 300 cans)

2. Green Beans, need 270  cans

3. Canned fruit , need 160 cans

4. Powdered milk

5.  Peanut butter & Jelly

6. Cereals (hot & cold)

At this time, we kindly ask that you do NOT donate the following items: corn, soup, tuna, mixed beans (any beans except green beans), macaroni and cheese, or diapers.

We are currently in need of volunteers to help with:

• Transporting donations from Costco (Gaithersburg) to the pantry on Sunday at 9:00 AM

• Assisting with inventory, a critical task, to be completed Sunday afternoon (preferred) or Monday

If you are available to help, please contact Paul, at 301-648-5945 or pbizotpe@aol.com

Thank you again for your continued generosity and support of our mission.
