Hannah Garcia+FollowNorth Denver food pantry finds new energyLosing their longtime home didn’t slow down Birdseed Collective one bit. When the Globeville Rec Center gave their space to another nonprofit, Kristina Garcia and her team quickly landed a new spot just up the road. Now, their weekly food pantry is back in action, handing out fresh produce and essentials to neighbors who need it most. The new location, in a former health clinic, is already buzzing—and there’s talk of even more community health services joining in. What do you think: Could this move make Birdseed’s impact even bigger for North Denver? #Safety #DenverCommunity #FoodPantry00Share
Gary Dunlap+FollowConey Island’s food pantry faces shutdownThe Coney Island Lighthouse Mission, a lifeline for thousands in Southern Brooklyn, is on the brink of closing its doors after 25 years. With food prices soaring and more families than ever relying on their pantry, the loss of major donors post-pandemic has left them struggling to cover basic costs like rent and salaries. They need to raise $100,000 to keep serving the community into 2026. Local leaders are stepping up, but it’s clear: every bit of support counts. What do you think our neighborhood can do to help keep this vital resource open? #Safety #ConeyIsland #FoodPantry00Share
qharris+FollowWhen SNAP Becomes a Source of ResentmentAt food pantry lines, I hear resentment more than gratitude. “They already have SNAP—why are they here?” A program meant to reduce conflict ends up amplifying it when resources are tight. When need and exploitation blur, trust collapses first. #SNAPTension #FoodPantry #CommunityConflict #PublicTrust1419Share
sherrilee+FollowWhen I Saw Eggs Were $6, I Put Them Back and Went Here Instead.I used to think going to a food pantry was shameful, but these grocery prices leave me no choice. Yesterday at the store, I couldn't justify paying $6 for eggs. On my way home, I checked Food Radar and found a church just two miles away distributing food. No questions asked—volunteers just handed me eggs and fresh veggies. They said, "We're just trying to stop food waste." The shame disappeared instantly. #Inflation #GroceryPrices #FoodPantry #LifeHacks00Share
