With Shelves Bare, Food Pantry at Hamilton Mill UMC Needs Your Help

After serving 77 families last weekend and giving away 2,300 pounds of food more than it received in donations, the Pantry at Hamilton Mill United Methodist Church needs to replenish its shelves.

“Our shelves are bare and we need your help,” the pantry emailed Dacula Patch this week. “Will you please help us spread the news?”

The Pantry says on its website that for the first time in months, there is not enough food for its next distribution.

“Please help the 70-plus families that will be counting on The Pantry this Saturday,” the organization posted.

The most needed items are (but any nonperishable items are accepted):

>> Canned entrees

>> Canned meats

>> Canned fruit

>> Canned vegetables

>> Peanut butter and jelly

>> Breakfast cereals

Donation bins are located inside the Hamilton Mill UMC portico entrance and can be dropped of during church business hours from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday – Thursday, and 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Sunday.

The Pantry is open from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. on Saturday. Hamilton Mill UMC is located at 1450 Pine Road, Dacula GA 30019.
