An integral part of The Ladle’s ministry is our Pantry which allows us an opportunity to provide non-perishable food items as well as toiletries to those in great need.  It is an excellent opportunity for both our participating Ladle partners and also to outside community organizations to donate these non-perishable items.

Currently, we are in need of personal care items. More and more individuals are asking for soaps, shampoos, conditioners, toothpaste and brushes and deodorant. These are items that are eliminated from shopping lists when funds are limited.


Pantry Shopping List:
