How do I get a check /donation to the Pantry?

Tax-deductible donations can be sent to the Food Pantry by sending a check to Beaver Island Christian Church, with Food Pantry on the memo line. The church houses this community-wide pantry in its Gregg Fellowship Center. The address is PO Box 21, Beaver Island, 49782. Thank you!

Please remember to check the expiration date on items you donate. The food pantry can't distribute expired food, and will just have to throw it out.

Also, the public area of News on the Web has a link at the bottom of the page for donations. One of the link on the donations page is for PayPal donations to the food pantry.
