New Saturday Hours
The Branford Food Pantry is excited to announce that, effective Saturday, March 6, we are expanding our service hours. We will open every first and third Saturday of the month from 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM, in addition to Tuesdays from 8:30-11:00 AM, and Fridays from 9:00-11:30 AM. The Branford Food Pantry provides supplemental groceries for individuals, seniors, and families in need, including fresh meat and poultry, eggs, milk, fresh vegetables and fruit, and shelf-stable food, such as soup, peanut butter, and jam. During these particularly challenging times we hope these additional hours will enable more members of our community to get the extra help they need to make ends meet. We are building our group of Saturday volunteers so please contact us if you are interested in helping out on Saturday mornings.
Volunteers Needed!
To provide even greater support to our neighbors in need, the Branford Food Pantry will expand its hours to include Saturday mornings. To make this happen, we need a dedicated group of volunteers willing to commit to working about three hours for one or two Saturday mornings to pack and distribute groceries. We also need a few volunteers with computer skills (knowledge of excel) and individuals who speak Spanish. Please contact us at branfordfoodpantry30@gmail.com if you are interested in volunteering.
