Another fantastic food drive by the Berkley Congregational Church, which has once again demonstrated its commitment to giving back to the community! Their fall theme, focusing on school snacks for the families with children, was a huge success and will undoubtedly bring smiles to many young faces. ❤️ A huge thank you to all donors who made this possible. Your generosity and kindness will have a lasting impact on the lives of these families. Thank you so much for your continued support! ❤️

5th Graders at Berkley Public Schools were given a Citizen Action Project (CAP) as their final project in history class this year. It was amazing to see all the good deeds, fundraisers and lessons learned from this project. Luke Lefaivre chose Open Shelves Food Pantry for his project. After years of volunteering he decided to educate the public and his classroom on alternative healthy items to donate to the pantry in lieu of high sugar, high salt packaged foods. He took his 3D printing skills and created fidgets with his own supplies. He sold them at the Berkley Common Store and raised $300! He also learned a lesson in budgeting money and deciding on which items he could buy to supply to the families this month. After some math he chose to shop for salmon, sweet potatoes and honey. We're so proud of Luke and grateful that he chose our pantry. We love that he took action to supply high nutrition for his neighbors. We also love that he presented the project beautifully and received an A+❤
