Dear Friend of the Pantry,
It is with great excitement and gratitude that I update the Community on the status of the new Pantry. As of September 25, GCFP has been operating out of our new home at 114 South 14th Street, Gunnison! Thank you to all the volunteers and businesses that helped make the move happen. Special thanks to Western Lumber, Alpine Moving, Camp4Coffee, Mochas Coffee House and Bakery, and Mario’s Pizza!
The Pantry needs the help of the Gunnison Valley to keep Pantry shelves stocked; with increased facility space and more guests coming to Shop the Pantry, your support is needed more than ever. Most needed items are staples such as peanut butter, jelly, soups, grains, frozen meat, frozen vegetables/fruit, and healthy cereals. Please consider what items you or your family would enjoy and donate those!
A Grand Opening
Gunnison Country Food Pantry cordially invites you to attend the Pantry’s Grand Opening Celebration on October 10, from 3-6p, at our new location 114 S 14th Street. Light refreshments will be provided.
