Food Pantry Donations
Did you know you don’t have to wait for a “Food
Drive” to bring in a donation??
If you have one can, one
bag or a whole box load, you can bring your donation to
mass and place it in the Food Pantry bin behind the table
in the Narthex.
St. Roman Food Pantry
The St. Roman Food Pantry has been in
operation since August 2000. It is open on Tuesdays from 5 pm
to 7 pm and Saturdays from 10 am to noon.
The pantry serves clients from the 53207, 53220, and 53221 zip
codes. Through October of this year, the pantry has provided
food for over 4,000 people who are unemployed,
underemployed, or on a fixed income. With the assistance of
the Hunger Task Force (HTF), the food is provided at no cost to
the clients.
The pantry is also considered an Infants Need Pantry to provide
baby formula to families in emergency situations. The
donations received from Sharing Sunday, memorials, and
private donations to the Pantry are used to purchase dairy
products, frozen foods, and produce to supplement the nonperishable
foods that are donated through food drives and
monthly deliveries from HTF.
This year, St. Roman Food
Pantry again received the highest rating awarded by Hunger
Task Force and was awarded a grant from the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to purchase
additional food.
Please help support the wonderful work of St. Roman's Food
Pantry and its volunteers through your Sharing Sunday offering.
