NORTH POLK COMET CUPBOARD
North Polk Comet Cupboard FOOD PANTRY
This Eagle Scout project, by Andrew George, was built as a way to help serve the community by providing food and personal care items to those in need. The tiny food pantry sits at the entry drive to the church and is available 24/7. The basic idea is that if you have food or items to donate, you can place them directly inside the tiny pantry, or bring them to the big red collection barrel inside the church. If you or someone you know is in need, take what you need.
Thanks to George Hess, Ernie Brees & Dixie Bequeaith who help monitor and restock the food in the mini pantry. With their help we are there 3 times/day to make certain food is always available. A continued thanks to all who still continue to drop off food!
Did you know the NP Comet Cupboard is also involved in food rescue from the Polk City Kum & Go store three days a week since October of 2020? A big thanks to Diane Lukasik, Linda Pennington and Annette & Jeff Purdy who pick up the sandwiches and take them back to the church to be given out. The sandwiches are then distributed through the NP Comet Cupboards in Polk City and Sheldahl and the Blessing Box Food Pantry in Elkhart. |
