You Can Help Remember our Food Pantry families when you shop for your own family. Donations of food, personal items, paper products, baby food and diapers are gratefully received. Monetary donations are also needed to supplement donated items. Volunteers are vital to keeping the Pantry in operation. Consider donating some of your time to shop, stock shelves, prepare perishable food items for distribution, or assist clients with their Pantry shopping, To be a part of this ministry, call the church office.
A Choice Pantry St. Stephen’s Food Pantry is a “choice” pantry, which means that clients do their own shopping, selecting only the items they will use. Choice honors our clients’ dignity and eliminates the waste of unused items.
2007 Mountain of Food 810 Cases! Mountain of Food WOW! Money for 810 cases of food! You helped us climb beyond the peak of our goal of 700 cases! Thank you for making this year’s Mountain of Food such a huge success! (Thank you also to Thrivent for a $1600 matching grant.)
Grant from Thrivent Because of your great response to our Mountain of Food Drive, we received at $1600 grant from Thrivent Lutheran. We wish to thank everyone who helped make that possible. December also brought us many food drive gifts from area churches, the Monona Chamber Business and individuals from the community. Our shelves look great and we want you to know that it will help us get through January, February and March when donations are low. St. Stephen’s Food Pantry Board and volunteers thank you for your loyal support of this ministry of caring for those in need.
