Good afternoon, everybody – This week the pantry broke a record. I wasn’t there, and Benny and I won’t be there for the foreseeable future due to the pandemic, but strong and capable hands have taken the reins and the pantry marches on. This past Wednesday in the morning we served 62 families, including 118 adults, 92 children and 27 seniors. Then in the evening another 9 families were served, including 18 adults, 10 children and 2 more seniors. This brought us to a total of 71 families, 136 adults, 102 children and 29 seniors, making a total of 267 people served. During the month of March we averaged 53 families and 198 people a week. In February, before all this started, we averaged 40 families and 147 people served.

Mary, thank you so much for reaching out to the Pantry. In order to make sure that clients can come and go quickly we’ve been giving out Stop & Shop gift cards. Today we gave a gift card together with boxes of food which were provided free from Feeding Westchester. What we need more than food right now is monetary contributions so that we can continue to offer gift cards until this virus is over. If you could make a donation on our website, dobbsferrypantry.org, it would be a tremendous help at this point. And thank you again for helping us.
