On the national holiday for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Monday. Jan. 21, the City of Kentwood stocked the shelves of its Little Free Pantry with a donation drive to collect food supplies for community members in need.
But the city is looking for support of its pantry all year long.
The city is seeking community partners willing to place a Kentwood Little Free Pantry collection bin for canned goods and other non-perishable items at their organization or business. Those interested in accepting a collection bin should contact the City of Kentwood Parks and Recreation Department at 616-656-5270 or eRecreation@kentwood.us .
Located in the Kentwood Activities Center, 355 48th St. SE, the Kentwood Little Free Pantry is similar in operation to a Little Free Library: take an item (or items) when needed and leave an item when you can. No applications are necessary. No questions are asked.
More information about Kentwood Little Free Pantry, including a list of suggested donations, is available online at kentwood.us/littlefreepantry .
