1 out of every 4 kids in Androscoggin County is hungry...everyday
Pantry Project is an initiative of the United Way of Androscoggin County with the aim of keeping local food pantry shelves full past the traditional holiday season of giving. Participating organizations display special shelving units to collect donations of non-perishable food and personal care items for a one month period. At the end of the month, they decide which of the 19 Androscoggin County Food Pantries will receive their donation.
In 2010, local organizations raised 208 boxes of food -- over 10,000 meals!
