Finding a new space for your pet pantry with limited hours can be tough. Consider community centers, local businesses, or public parks for temporary solutions. Also, explore mobile pantry options or collaborate with other organizations. Keep fundraising for a permanent location while you explore these options.

Subject: How do you find a new space for a pet pantry?
We opened our Pet Pantry in January of this year. We are using a public storage unit and have distribution one day per month, for one hour. Traffic in and out of the storage unit during this hour is about 100 cars. The storage unit has just informed us that they are getting complaints from other customers about the traffic. We need to look for another place to house our pantry -- and have been actively fundraising and applying for grants to possibly buy a storage shed-type building. But, in the meantime, what are some ideas for locations of a small pantry with those specifications above. The two charity founders work FT jobs separate from the charity, so this would not be a pantry that would be open daily for customer traffic.
