Neighborhoods across the US installing miniature pantries for the underprivileged

With the success of the Little Free Library movement in the US, communities have now come up with a somewhat similar idea – Little Free Pantry. Under this new initiative, neighborhoods across the country are building small food pantries that are stocked by the community to help people in need.

In general, non-perishable foods or items are appreciated, such as: canned foods with ring-pulls, sealed crackers and snacks, bottled water, socks, toilet tissue, hand soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, baby wipes and any toiletries.

A family in Boise, Idaho, recently celebrated their son’s third birthday by building a Little Free Pantry and asked party guests to bring canned goods as gifts.

“Birthdays are a time of giving, and we don’t need that much stuff.

So that’s what we did for his third birthday.”
