Bountiful food pantry asks for Thanksgiving donations
With Thanksgiving just around the corner, the Bountiful Community Pantry is in need of community support. The pantry is asking for food donations to aid the families in the area who aren’t able to enjoy the holiday meal.
The Bountiful Community Pantry has become a lifeline for many families and is serving more than double the number of families this year compared to last.
They are hoping to collect 1,300 turkeys in total. Monday morning, they counted only 500 turkeys and said any donated side dishes are also greatly appreciated.
The food pantry is located at 480 E. 150 North in Bountiful. Donation hours run Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., Tuesday through Thursday from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon.
