The Pantry is honored to spotlight United Methodist Church of Mount Kisco, a sponsoring congregation with a long and meaningful connection to our work and to the neighbors we nourish.

Through this month’s food drive, UMC is helping fill our shelves while reminding us how powerful community care can be when people come together with generosity and purpose.

Pictured top right, Pastor Thomas Stubbs shared:

“The Pantry is a place where the deep gladness of giving and the deep hunger of the world meet. It inspired me to see the Mt. Kisco community share its abundance with those we serve.”

Pictured below right, congregant and volunteer Heather Kent reflected on her family’s long connection to The Pantry:

“I have been familiar with The Pantry since it was located at the Boys & Girl’s Club 22 yrs. ago. I was new to the area, and I was so impressed that this community really cared for all its residents. Several years later, after it moved to our church, my husband and then my son were lucky to be a part of such a wonderful organization and were proud of being associated with The Pantry. This place has been amazing and supportive and honestly the lifeblood for so many people. I am happy to give back by volunteering whenever I can.”

We are grateful to the entire UMC community for helping nourish our neighbors and strengthen the circle of care around The Pantry.
