OPPORTUNITIES TO HELP
Please consider donating food on Saturday May 16 between 9:00am – 12:00pm to help support the ongoing efforts of the Bethel Community Food Pantry and Brotherhood in Action to meet the nutritional needs of Bethel households.
Currently, Bethel has 191 households registered to utilize the food pantry. These households are comprised of 417 people. It is an amazing effort by the volunteers of The Community Food Pantry and Brotherhood in Action to meet the nutritional needs of Bethel households experiencing food insecurity.
Brotherhood in Action hopes to fill their pantry for their summer food delivery to approximately 67 households with children.
The items that they are in highest need of include pasta, cereal, sauce, child friendly snacks, coffee, mac & cheese, small bags of rice, shelf stable juices and small laundry detergent.
Donations will be accepted on May 16th from 9:00am – 12:00pm at 137 Greenwood Avenue Bethel, CT. Brotherhood in Action is located next to The Methodist Church, in the rear lot. Please access the food drive from Greenwood Avenue and exit from the back lot, onto School Street.
