United Way will collect food and baby items

United Way

Join the United Way JCGC to help STUFF THE PANTRY. They will be collecting food and baby items. Donations will be shared with the Geary County Food Pantry, JC Pregnancy Center, Konza Cupboard, Clover Cabinet, and other food pantries.

Donations will go to help those in need in the community. With summer right around the corner, the Geary County Food Pantry and other emergency pantries need help. Each month, the food pantries in the community provide food for over 2,000 people. 

In addition to food items, United Way will be collecting items for the JC Pregnancy Center. Often, when a new or expecting parent comes into the pregnancy center, it is to get help with items for their little one. This could be diapers, wipes, pacifiers, or baby towels. 

Volunteers who would like to help can sign up at through a SignUp Genius link. Volunteers will help collect items and/or deliver them to the intended recipients. In addition to live days, there will be drop-off boxes throughout the community.
