A fourth, monthly women-only food and household products distribution will be held by Aurora Area Interfaith Food Pantry from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 17, at Mutual Ground domestic violence shelter, 120 Gale Street in Aurora.
Women are invited. Registration and identification are not required.
Rebecca “Becky” Dunnigan, Pantry outreach and program director, said food items, diapers, formula, baby food and feminine hygiene products will be distributed. The pantry’s women’s distribution in January at Santori Aurora Public Library served 60 families.
According to Dunnigan, Women’s Empowerment Mobil Pantries are scheduled for the third Thursdays of months this year. Locations will be announced.
Patrons do not need to leave their vehicles to claim food. Pantry volunteers observe pandemic safety procedures when loading bags of groceries valued at $100 into patrons’ vehicles.
