Monthly Food Pantry Collection

Next weekend, February 4/5, is our monthly collection for the Batavia Interfaith Food Pantry. Current needs are:

• boxed pasta
• spaghetti sauce
• boxed cereal (any kind)
• kidneybeans
• crackers (any kind)
• toothpaste
• Other non perishable food, personal and household items, and monetary donations are welcome.

Eileen Pasero, parishioner and food pantry director, sends this message.

“Thank you Holy Cross, for your continued support! Inflation and the high cost of food, gas, and housing has meant that many Batavians are seeking out our services for the first time. We had a record number of new families in the past 6 months. We appreciate your generosity; it enables us to keep the shelves full, no matter how many families come to our doors.”
