Hello,
We are transitioning to a food pantry. Prior, we have delivered food. This past year, we have struggled with sustainability. We gave out 107,000 pounds of food and drover over 15k miles. This is for a program that is supposed to be solely dependent on donations. Due to the struggles, we are transitioning to a food pantry and working to connect home bound people with organizations that can deliver.
My questions for others running a pick up only food pantry:
How much food do you give? Is it per animal or a set amount per family regardless of the number of animals? When we were delivering, we could confirm the number of animals. Do you attempt to do this for pickups?
How often do you allow pickups?
We want to be as barrier free as we can. Do you have any criteria?
