Before 2020, the Helping Hands Food Pantry of Wesley Chapel was serving about 50 families per week with donations of food and essentials. Once COVID-19 took full effect, the pantry went to providing bags of food for over 500 families weekly. Three years later, the need continues to grow with no sight of a diminishing line of families in need in our near future.
The GFWC Pasco Juniors used the opportunity of September 30th, our GFWC National Day of Service, to assist with collecting nonperishable foods for the local pantry. In the four hours on a Saturday afternoon, our ladies assisted volunteers with collecting and organizing over 1,400 pounds of food.
If you know someone in need in the Wesley Chapel Area, distributions are made on Wednesday Mornings located at 29617 State Road 54, Wesley Chapel, FL 33545.
