We have two work parties scheduled for the coming days. On Saturday the 27th, the space will be open from 1-3 (maybe longer) to do some final painting. On Tuesday the 30thwe will have the space open from 5-8pm. We are in the final stages of painting and we really need the help – this is an important hurdle to cross so we can move on to the next stage – having the floor professionally cleaned and prepped for painting.
All materials are lovingly provided!

The weather cooperated to make for a wonderful inaugural Get Off Your Can 5k. Over 210 people registered for the walk/run and everything went very smoothly.We doubled our goal of having 100 registered participants.
Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to make this day a memorable event and a fantastic fundraiser for our East Bay Food Pantry!

There is so much painting to do thanks to the good work of our builder, Roger Pray, that we are hoping for at least 5 people to attend a painting work party Wed June 17, from 5-8pm.
We really need to keep the progress moving ahead and we need your help. If you can help, please email Anita Randall at dbrakr@cox.net
Thanks so much!

An additional painting work party has been scheduled this week on Wednesday evening from 6-8pm. We have a lot to do and the supplies are ready for you. Please try to come and share some time in our space. At this point, the project is moving ahead because of our volunteer labor. The more we do the earlier we will be operational!

To make continued progress on the Food Pantry space we need to keep painting! On Saturday June 6 from 1-3pm we will have everything ready for you. If only 10 people come for that time, we can accomplish a lot!
We provide all the supplies, brushes, etc. You just provide the LOVE!

The East Bay Food Pantry is partnering with Pizza Wave in Bristol on Tuesday, June 16th. Simply eat in, take out or ask for delivery and mention our East Bay Food Pantry. 10% of the proceeds from that day will be donated back to the East Bay Food Pantry. The hours for this event are from 11am to 10pm. Ron Lopes, owner of Pizza Wave, will have a full crew on hand to serve you. Pizza Wave is located on Metacom Avenue next to Blockbuster Video.
We will also be running a big raffle at Pizza Wave during the day. Come in and see the amazing variety of items! We will also have staff at Pizza Wave to get you signed up for our 5k walk/run on June 20th.
It is a win-win as we work to engage, educate and empower the East Bay in creating a hunger-free community.
Please tell your friends and family about this event and ask them to support our efforts!
