Diana’s Pantry, a component of the Congregational Support Committee, is a tangible support of individuals and families in our AUUF community who have self-described as being food insecure.

Every third Sunday of the month, the Diana’s Pantry Team collects non-perishable. food and household items donated by members of the congregation to distribute to those who have expressed a need. A grocery store gift card is also included each month to assist with unexpected needs. When a Diana’s Pantry recipient fills out a contact and information form, they also mark a list of items they typically eat or might buy for themselves at the grocery store. The Diana’s Pantry team uses these lists to provide recipients with what they will find useful. The lists also help donors shop intentionally and mindfully to better assist our Diana’s Pantry recipients.

Recently, the following items were requested specifically:

Tomato products:  Sauce, Diced, and Paste

Canned Meats:  Chicken, Salmon, Tuna

Shelf stable Microwaveable dinners

Canned Fruit no sugar or syrup added:  Peaches, Pears, Mandarin Oranges

Rice

Macaroni and Cheese

Oatmeal instant of cook

Pancake Mix

Paper towels

Fragrance Free laundry detergent

As always Gift Cards are accepted to Kroger, Public’s and Aldi Grocery.  Cash donations go into our Harvest Fund to purchase Gift Cards be used throughout the year.

If you have other items to donate including fresh produce, please contact a DP Team member first and we will check if recipients can use these items.  

Thank you as always for your continuing generosity and support.
