OPEN PANTRY LOOKING FOR DONATIONS - PLEASE HELP!

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) - The overwhelming need for food during the holidays has left shelves bare at the Open Pantry. Now, the community service group is looking to stock up for the upcoming new year.
In the last two days, the Open Pantry has helped feed more than 400 people. Christmas Day, the community group hosted a holiday meal at the High School of Commerce in Springfield. Monday, nearly a dozen volunteers served lunch and leftovers at the Christ Church Cathedral.
Darleen St. Jacques is the meal services program director. She told 22News it has been a busy holiday season, and to prepare for 2012 they need to replenish the pantry with some much-needed essentials.
“Here at the kitchen, we could really definitely use beef stew, tuna and coffee. And also for the guests that I serve, here at the kitchen we definitely could use new gloves, men and woman's new white socks, jackets and thermal outerwear or underwear,” St. Jacques said.
The food pantry is in need of protein items like canned meats or peanut butter. They are also looking for non-perishable boxed meals like macaroni and cheese. If you would like to donate, you can call the Emergency Food Pantry at (413) 737-5353 or fax them at (413) 737-4440. You can visit them at 2460 Main Street (Plaza del Mercado) in Springfield.
