The Northborough Food Pantry Really Needs This Stuff Right Now

NORTHBOROUGH, MA—After the holidays pass by and the winter doldrums set in, people forget about giving...and those in need. The Northborough Food Pantry accepts and appreciates donations year-round, and most recently posted a plea for certain items to fill its shelves.

The pantry is running low on:

• Dry Pasta
• Canned Beans
• Tuna
• Whole grain cereals—hot or cold
• Granola bars, whole grain crackers and other healthy snacks
• Rice and rice mixes in boxes
• Canned fruit in natural juice
• Multipacks of single serving fruit and applesauce
• Canned stews and pasta meals (like Spaghettios)
• Shelf stable milk, powdered milk and juice boxes
• Mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, salad dressing
• Microwavable shelf stable meals
• Personal care items—toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo, lotion, soap
• Soup (all varieties except tomato)
• Canned corn
• Peanut butter and jelly
