Yachats Food Pantry Update
Did you know the Yachats Food Pantry has grown?? The small pantry originated by the Yachats Youth & Family Activity Program’s teen group, Helping Hands, has grown into a true community effort. We’ve improved our space with the assistance of the City of Yachats, Friends of the Commons, Yachats Community Presbyterian and St. Luke’s Episcopal Churches. The addition of a refrigerator makes it possible to include perishable foods in addition to the canned and packaged foods we’ve carried all along. A small part of the food dropped off includes 183 pounds from St. Luke’s in Waldport over the past month and a half. Local residents and businesses are also helping by providing food and money to stock the pantry. The Village Bean has been collecting tips on Tuesdays to help stock the pantry. To date, customers and employees have donated over $1000! [more
