🥫 The Linwood YMCA is looking to expand our community food pantry partnerships! 🤝🏾💙

We are so grateful for our current pantry partners who help us provide food and resources to individuals and families in our community. We’re looking to build on that support by connecting with additional organizations, businesses, churches, farms, food distributors, and community groups who would be interested in partnering with us.

We are especially looking for partners who may be able to donate or provide:

🥫 Non-perishable food items
❄️ Frozen foods
🥬 Refrigerated/fresh foods
🍎 Produce
🛒 Other food resources that can help support our community

Our goal is simple: to provide our community with greater access to a variety of food and resources when they need them. ❤️

If you or someone you know represents an organization that would be interested in partnering with the Linwood YMCA, we would love to connect!

📩 Send us a message or email our Program Director, Daisy Rushing, at [email protected] to learn more about becoming a community food pantry partner.

If you know someone who may be a good fit, please share this post or tag them below! 💙
