Details: The Five Corner Cupboard is the only food pantry in East Windsor. It was started in 1973 as a mission of our church and is run totally by volunteers from this and other area churches. Recipients are by referral, only. The Pantry is open Tuesday and Thursday mornings and one evening per month, on the third Friday. The pantry is supported by the townspeople during our fall food drive conducted by the area Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, the spring food drive by the Warehouse Point and Broad Brook Letter Carriers, as well as many businesses, civic organizations, clubs, neighborhoods and individuals. In December, 2012 the pantry became a partner agency with Foodshare, the food bank which serves Hartford and Tolland counties. MISSION STATEMENT: The Five Corner Cupboard, which is housed at the First Congregational Church of East Windsor, is a Christian based, ecumenical food pantry whose mission is to provide supplemental food and hygiene items to people in need who are referred by the East Windsor Human Services Department. We provide this service in a loving, compassionate, non discriminatory, non judgmental environment. |
