We are truly blown away by your generosity and kindness.

Your support means the world.To anyone who came by after 2:00pm, we’re sorry we missed you! Duty called and our crews had to respond to an emergency—but it’s not too late to help. We’re still collecting donations!Drop off items: Station 1 – 8611 S Roberts Rd in Justice 8:00am to 7:00pm daily through Wednesday, May 7th 2025.Let’s keep the momentum going and help Elsie’s Pantry reopen their doors to the many local families who rely on them.
