The Food Pantry provides food for those unemployed or who have fallen through the cracks. *** Assistance Programs: Various services are available to aid our community members in crisis. We assist them with water utility assistance through the Dollar Energy Fund, as well as provide them with food and holiday assistance (food, clothing, and toys). Through our Citadel, we use volunteers to assist in stocking our pantry, sorting clothing, packing food, and collecting clothing and toys, as well as aiding in distribution.*** Diaper Bank Program: We also operate a "Diaper Bank" to assist families with little children on a weekly basis. The diapers come from The Diaper Bank, which centralizes the fundraising and distribution of free diapers to poor families through existing service providers, including local food pantries, soup kitchens, daycare centers, social service agencies and shelters. Through its extensive Diaper Distribution Network of 66 agencies, The Diaper Bank provides free diapers to poor and low-income families in New Haven, Bridgeport, Hartford, and Middlesex County. ***Holiday Programs: We distributed 1820 toys and 630 items of clothing to 646 children (317 families). We visited 848 people in local nursing and convalescent homes, including 175 at the VA Medical Center. With the help and generosity of businesses, schools, social groups, churches, and individuals, we were able to provide happiness to those in need during the holiday season. ***Summer Camp: Camp CONNRI is situated on 272 acres of rolling hills in Ashford, Connecticut. Campers enjoy a wide variety of activities for a week, including: swimming, hiking, fishing, boating, baseball, softball, basketball, volleyball, nature studies, arts and crafts, and much more.*** Hours: Food Pantry Monday, Wednesday, Friday 9:00 a.m. 11:30 a.m.*** Diaper Bank: Tuesday and Thursday 9:00 am. 1:00 p.m.
