The Kewaunee County Food Pantry in Algoma has seen a sizeable increase in demand for families in the area, according to pantry president Ken Marquardt. With more families needing assistance due to layoffs during the COVID-19 crisis, pantries like the Kewaunee County Food Pantry are working to meet the needs of the community. Marquardt says his staff has been working through the logistics of serving his clients and following guidelines.
The Kewaunee County Food Pantry in Algoma recently received a $3,000grant from the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation for food and supplies. He says donations are still accepted and that canned fruits, vegetables, and soups are in the greatest demand. The pantry located near the Algoma’s Industrial Park is open 11-1 every Monday and Wednesday.
