HELPING NEIGHBORS FOOD PANTRY . . . For May the special needs at the Helping Neighbors Food Pantry are large cans (not the giant cans)  of fruit and soup.  We have many large families and these are great for them. As you grocery shop try to remember those less fortunate than you and put one or two cans in for them!  The pantry always appreciates any non-perishable food items or gifts of money.
