Ways to help COVID-19 Now	Very Special Deliveries: Ways to Help Every year, more than 600 families from the 45204 zip code utilize our Community Market choice food pantry in times of emergency need.

Over the last two weeks, we have seen demand for the pantry nearly double. At the same time, many local businesses, religious organizations, and schools are closed, which means the typical supply of in-kind food that we normally receive from food drives each Spring will be dramatically diminished. In order to continue to meet the emergency needs of our neighbors, we will have to increase our spending to purchase food and other items from the Freestore Foodbank and other partners. You can help us meet this increased demand and limit additional expenses! Help collect new or used brown paper bags to be used for pantry delivery while physical distancing is required. Donate extra shelf-stable food and other items from your cupboards that are of the highest need. These include: ready to eat meals (e.g. canned ravioli, Spaghetti Os, chili, and stews), feminine care items, diapers, baby formula, cleaning supplies, shampoo, etc. Organize a food or supply drive for when self-quarantine requirements are lifted. We have a toolkit available to help organize your drive. Assist our team with calling to connect with other potential food and supply drive partners.

How you help	Without the dedication, passion, and commitment of our volunteers we would be unable to provide all of the necessary services and opportunities that we currently do for our neighbors.

About us	Our community connects us and gives us our sense of place. Living in community means being a part of something bigger than oneself and creating space for people, families, and a local economy.
