Food Pantry

Post by medic5740 »

The Beaver Island Food Pantry is a community-wide program that provides food to individuals and families in need. If you are packing up to head off-island after your summer here, remember that the Pantry can use many of those foodstuffs that you don't want to carry home with you. For your convenience, there are collection baskets at the Beaver Island Christian Church, Beaver Island Community Center, Beaver Island Rural Health Center, Fresh Air, Holy Cross Church and Island Airways.


We can accept unopened, unexpired non-perishable food items. Cash donations are tax-deductible and are always appreciated as well. Checks can be made payable to the Beaver Island Christian Church, PO Box 21, Beaver Island, 49782. Please write Food Pantry on the memo line. Or you can use the Donation button at the bottom of the home page at beaverislandnews.com, Joe Moore's News on the Net.


The Food Pantry provides monthly "baskets" of food and personal care items to qualified Islanders year-round. Thank you for your help.
