Forgot to add: I am there every Tues and Thursday. However, I see the
individuals/friends only once a month, since they are allowed only one
visit per month. They get about a week's worth of food each visit.
There are four other pantries in Lowell they can visit *once a month*.
So, they get by. But, like I said, the cut backs in USDA (I have
mistakenly called it FDA) have resulted in less (sometimes NO) meat.
Since all the pantries get their food from the same source, the cut
backs have been devistating. Old Mother Hubbard.....

They also get clothes, blankets, towels, toys, etc donated by individuals.
