Our Sustenance for Seniors Program Needs Your Donations.

SUSTENANCE FOR SENIORS IS THE CENTER’S WEEKLY FOOD PANTRY. 

Do you know that our volunteer-staffed Sustenance for Seniors food pantry distributed 140,000 pounds of groceries to older adults in need last year?

Donations Welcome
More than ever, our food pantry needs your help. Recent weeks have seen a steady rise in participants in our weekly distribution, and our resources are strained. Please donate if you can to help us meet our increased Food Pantry needs.

While we are always grateful for your donated food items (canned and boxed non-perishables only, please), your cash contribution will go even further to feed those in need. We are able to obtain food at pennies on the dollar from the local distribution center. A box of cereal or can of tuna that costs you $2 or more is available to us for less than $1. Please consider making your gift in dollars instead of foodstuffs. We are always pleased to receive donations and the gratitude of our Food Pantry clients is immeasurable.
