Food distribution dates

During coming months, we will distribute food at 2351 W. Orangethorpe Ave.:

• October 1 and 15
• November 5 and 19
• December 3 and 17

Come to the Methodist church parking lot by 9:00 a.m. on these Saturdays for food from the Second Harvest Food Bank. There is no charge for this program. Food is available every month of the year. It doesn't matter if you participate in any other food program, you may still receive food from the mobile pantry.

New Distribution Method

We distribute food in random order, like in a raffle, to all persons who are present at 9:00 a.m. Please do not bring your baskets, boxes or carts the night before or early on Saturday mornings to "reserve a place in line".

We give food first to people in wheelchairs, or with disabilities, or those who can prove they are over 70 years of age. Once we have distributed food to these persons, food is distributed in random order to all others. Everybody receives the same food, regardless of what time they might have come.

You can help us make our distribution safe and successful. Please:

• Don't come to our parking lot until at least 8:00 a.m. to receive food.
• Bring bags or boxes to carry away the food you receive,
• Do not let your children enter, or play in, the pre-school area,
• Don't approach the truck and distribution area until we invite you to come get the food.
• Don't leave trash or shopping carts on church property.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation!

Coordinator
