The Taylorville Food Pantry served over 500 families a month throughout Christian County during the summer months and now preparing for the next wave ahead of the holiday season. Pam Moses, Co-Coordinator for the Taylorville Food Pantry was pleased with the support shown by the community and businesses in donations of food and money provided for those in need.

Moses called this summer the busiest the food pantry has ever seen. Moses spoke on the vast number of families that the Taylorville Food Pantry successfully provided for.

Local grocery stores have been doing their part in donating food through the Food Rescue Program, while countless amounts of donations have come from the local community. This means many volunteers are necessary for unloading trucks, stocking shelves, and serving families in need.

Moses says volunteers are working six days a week while accepting truckloads of food from participating grocery stores every two days. The volunteer entry process is simple, Moses tells interested volunteers to just walk in the doors.

The Taylorville Food Pantry is located at 1429 East Main Cross Street in Taylorville and for information about the pantry you can visit their website at taylorvillefoodpantry.com/.
