Hatboro Community Cupboard-September, 2025

 

September brought an increase in client visits. We served 414 families during the month and registered 25 new families.


We continue to restock using the MAHN grant in addition to the generous donations received from our partner churches as well as Riverside Church in Horsham who completed a food drive that was split between Willow Grove Baptist and our cupboard. The Women’s Ministry of St. John’s also conducted a food drive during September that helped stock our shelves with much needed items. The Grocery Outlet food drive is scheduled for October 11 and 12 from 10:00 AM until 2:00 PM. The food pantry team leaders and volunteers will be greeting the shoppers and provide a list of most needed items for the pantry. We will have leaders at the exit door to collect the donations from the shoppers and bring them back to the pantry.


We received several large cash donations from private donors, our partner churches, as well as the Hatboro Rotary. We are truly blessed to receive these unexpected but most welcome donations.


We have been blessed to add a new driver to our list of volunteers. He came in to meet with us on Tuesday and we put him right to work on Wednesday picking up Garden of Health donations with CJ.


We continue to search for a substitute team leader. We are confident that God will provide the right person in His time.


As always we are grateful for our volunteers and all of the organizations that support us in our efforts to food to those most in need.


Our current needs:

Canned meat (especially tuna), cereal, boxed pasta, canned corn, Knorr sides, Hamburger Helper, Rice a Roni, canned chili.
