Located in the church’s chapel, it was established more than thirty years ago by the pastor and members of the church to serve as an emergency source of food for individuals and families in need. Staffed by volunteers and supported by a board of directors, the pantry is an example of neighbors helping neighbors in the community. RFP is blessed to have amazing support from the community, including a number of schools. Donations are welcome, as we strive to keep our neighbors and friends from going hungry in Roslindale and West Roxbury; however, the pantry has limited storage space, so we ask that you please keep these new guidelines in mind. |
