Damien’s Place urges those in need to come get food

Feb 5, 2021

The Damien’s Place Family Food Pantry is open to any and all people who need food, regardless of where they live.

Executive Director Jackie Arsenault said that all people need to do to receive food is bring a piece of mail with their address on it the first time they come. 

People are allowed to come to the pantry every two weeks.

The line moves quickly, and the pantry is now using beepers so people can wait in their car until it is their turn to come get food.

“Please don't go hungry!” said Arsenault. “Many folks are needing help during these trying times and there is no shame in taking a little help - that is what we are here for, so come and see us and we will get you loaded up with good, nutritious food for you and your family!”

The pantry is located at 3065 Cranberry Highway in the building behind the Sherwin Williams Paint Store. 

The pantry is open from 9 to 11:30 a.m. on Thursdays and Saturdays.
