In this time of health and economic stress, SHARE suggests that those who are able consider contributing to a local food pantry or food pantry coalition. In this spirit, SHARE has contributed $500 to the Sister Maureen Joyce Center Food Pantry on Sheridan Avenue.
Area food bank coalitions Food Pantries for the Capital District and Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York accept donations that may optionally be designated for a specific food pantry.
For those who need food assistance, or who can volunteer their time, these websites also provide food pantry locations and hours of operation.
