We could use your help
Hunger has become a growing challenge for
more and more local families in these difficult economic times.
The Barre Food Pantry is our community's response. The Food Bank
is a way of easing the stress on those of our neighbors who are
struggling to make ends meet because of a job loss or other
financial setback.
Our once-a-month distributions of grocery and other items are
intended to bridge a gap for the more than 100 families who take
advantage of our service.
You can help with your donations of food, financial support and
of your time to help collect donations for the monthly
distribution and for other transportation.
The food bank makes deliveries to shut-ins only. A shut-in is as
someone whom can not physically can’t get out of their home. We
are seeking volunteers who can help with deliveries.
Contact David Petrovick, Food Pantry Director, for more
information and to learn about the many ways in which you can
support the Food Bank.

Why Volunteer
Our volunteers say that they get involved for a variety of
reasons, notably it is fun! Many feel compelled to help an
effort that reaches our sometimes unseen and struggling
neighbors. Religious, moral and personal goals have been cited.
In the last two years, we have made a big impact in our area to
reduce hunger and to foster community cohesiveness with other
civic, private and religious organizations.
We appreciate any help you can give.
Your donations are tax deductible.
