A real highlight is the slideshow made about our Founders:
As we reflect on our 40-year journey, these cherished photographs capture the visionaries who laid our foundation. In their faces, you’ll see the determination, hope, and love that launched our organization four decades ago. An organization that has touched and transformed thousands of lives.

Even a PBS segment
From those early days captured in our historical photos, we now fast-forward to this PBS documentary segment. Watch to see how a lot of our donated food now arrives at the Pantry. It illustrates the remarkable evolution of our organization, showing how those initial dreams have blossomed into the dynamic Pantry we see today. Click here or on the photo above to view.
