“If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.”

― Chinese Proverb

Thank you for continuing to WEAR A MASK when talking with Food Shelf volunteers.

There are two tables outside the Food Shelf with miscellaneous items. Please take only what you will use.

Donors, as a reminder, there are volunteers at the Food Shelf beginning at 11 AM on Wednesdays preparing for the day if you would like to drop off donations early. Some grocery donations to consider might include apple juice; Progresso or Campbell’s Chunky soups with chicken or beef; cereals (Honey Nut Cheerios, Raisin Bran, etc.); pasta sauce (without meat).
