We rarely receive items such as shampoo, soap, razors, tooth paste, tooth brushes, laundry soap, and toilet paper.
We also have a thrift store that could benefit from more volunteer support. The proceeds from the thrift store help support the pantry. The thrift store hours are Monday – Saturday 9 am – 2 pm.
