To the Editor:
I am writing to encourage people to get out and support the tiny pantry. The tiny pantry is a source of food for people that need it. It is outside and available anytime. With the ending of COVID-19-era subsidies, the need for assistance with food has increased.
There has been a decrease in people’s food stamp benefits, but the price of food did not go down with it. Having encountered people that have made use of the tiny pantry they said that it has been a blessing while they waited to be approved for food stamps.
With the increased usage of the tiny pantry, it is important that the community come together to keep it full. Donations should be dropped off at the tiny pantry located in the parking lot of the Shelburne-Charlotte-Hinesburg Interfaith Project.
