Kind people have been asking about how The Community Space (TCS) is faring with the surge in demand for food, especially with the expected suspension of SNAP benefits for folks. We have already been seeing new faces and longer lines and expect the need to increase.
Putting out extra red baskets to move people through the food pantry more quickly.
Working with local organizations to coordinate food drives for us. (Thanks!)
Looking at possible grants to secure more food.
Updating our website and adding a means to make online donations.
If you’d like to help:
Food donations — peanut butter, canned tuna and chicken, and breakfast cereals are especially needed — can be dropped off Tues 8:30-10:45 am; Wed 3:30-6:45 pm; Sat 8:30 am-11:45 a.m.
Monetary donations really let us put our savvy shopping powers to work. Donations of any amount can be made out to “The Community Space” and mailed to P.O. Box 213, Whitewater WI 53190 or dropped off at TCS. (We’ll let you know when online donations can be made.) TCS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
