This week’s food donations will be going to New Hope Baptist Church Food Pantry. New Hope Baptist Church’s Food Pantry is dedicated to helping anyone in need. It is important that during this pandemic we continue to help each other and serve our community, so there are no residential requirements. For available times, please visit their website. SCP will be accepting non-perishable items such as canned meat, vegetables, and fruit along with boxed food and items in plastic containers. We are also accepting paper products. Please no glass containers. Because of the current virus concerns as with many local food pantries, there is a shortage of necessary items for those in need.
