The Open Cupboard Pantry, a ministry of the Granby Congregational Church, has been selected as a beneficiary of the Big Y Community Bag Program for the month of February.
The Big Y Community Bag Program, which launched in January 2019, is a reusable bag program that facilitates community support with the goal of making a difference in the areas where shoppers live and work.
Open Cupboard Pantry was selected as the February beneficiary of the program by store leadership at the Big Y at 195 College Highway in Southwick. Open Cupboard Pantry will receive a $1 donation every time the $2.50 reusable Community Bag is purchased at this location during February, unless otherwise directed by the customer through the Giving Tag attached to the bag.
“We are very excited that Big Y has chosen Open Cupboard to be the recipient of its Community Bag Program for the month of February. It is great to have the support of Big Y as we work to support our community” said Pantry Manager Kerri Crough at Open Cupboard. “There are many struggling with food insecurity at this time and funds donated will help us stock our shelves so that we can distribute it to those who need it.”
Open Cupboard Pantry operates in the church’s North Campus at 219 No. Granby Road and distributes food on a drive-thru basis on Fridays between 3 and 4 p.m.
