These shelves get restocked daily, and anyone can take something from them. The only rule is that you may only take 1 sweet item from the shelf. You could take as much bread as you need.]]> 2017-11-07 14:31:08 UTC https://padlet.com/skylar_fry/rn3ekfmqodtn/wish/204359842 skylar_fry https://padlet.com/skylar_fry/rn3ekfmqodtn/wish/204363058 Every Tuesday, the Salvation Army gets a delivery of veggies.

Every time someone wants to sign up for the Food Pantry, a new file is created for them. These files need to be put inside the cabinet alphabetically, to be used again when the info needs to be looked at when they come back for the next Food Pantry. This pile in particular is about a week and a half worth of files. ]]> 2017-11-07 14:49:51 UTC https://padlet.com/skylar_fry/rn3ekfmqodtn/wish/204372348 skylar_fry https://padlet.com/skylar_fry/rn3ekfmqodtn/wish/204377862 The Salvation Army is a charity organization, whose purpose is to help those who need it while also preaching the gospel.

I learned that they have to compete with other food pantries to get food from stores, whoever calls them first every week is who will get the food from stores.]]> 2017-11-14 18:06:36 UTC https://padlet.com/skylar_fry/rn3ekfmqodtn/wish/206873797
