Our pantry is run on a volunteer basis. We have many volunteers who contribute their time to make this pantry run smoothly. This ministry would not exist without your support. Monthly we give away around three tons of food. This requires man power with abilities to move the cases and boxes of food. The food is obtained in three ways: the donations collected in church, free government food, and food we purchase from Second Harvest at a reduced rate. Each month it costs us around $300 to $400 to purchase food and cover the delivery fee. The money comes from grants from Second Harvest (getting smaller every year) and donations from parishioners. If you are making donations to Second Harvest appeals, please mark your donation be given to St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church food pantry, so we have direct benefit of the money and not just a very small portion given to us as grant.
