Community Service

Help Stock the Wilton Food Pantry

Monday Mornings

 

Comstock Community Center

 

WWC is vital in ensuring fresh and frozen food reaches those in need in Wilton. Our volunteers go every Monday morning to pick up these groceries from The Food Bank of Lower Fairfield County in Stamford and deliver it to the Wilton Food Pantry at the Comstock Center.  You may arrive as early as 8:30 to the Food Bank and need to be back to the Food Pantry no later than 11:30.  The entire process typically takes 2 to 2 1/2 hours total.

 

Whether you can help once or regularly, your contribution makes a real difference. Visit wiltonwomansclub.com/commservice for instructions.  Questions contact Patti Dormer prdormer@gmail.com
