Why is the pantry only open from 4-6 p.m. Monday through Friday?
Our pantry hours are dependent on our food delivery schedule. We receive a food delivery from the Hoosier Hills Food Bank each day between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. and our staff requires adequate time to ready the pantry for our clients. Due to the high volume of clients we serve and the high volume of food we distribute, we cannot operate without a daily delivery of food. We have found that 4-6 p.m. is a convenient time for a majority of our clients. However, if a client is unable to visit us during those hours, we have a proxy system in place whereby another individual may shop for the absent client. Please visit us and ask for a proxy form and we will help accommodate any situation.
