A nationally-based network is aiding one area food pantry to keep up with the community's additional needs. Ken Marquardt of the Kewaunee County Food Pantry says the increased demand for provisions has been offset by Feeding America, the second-largest U.S. charity that serves over 200 food banks. He says the pantry is in a good position starting 2021, thanks to donors' generosity and Feeding America.
The pantry is open Monday and Wednesday from 11 am until 1 pm. Marquardt estimates that the Kewaunee County Food Pantry helped 119 new families last year and provided for 180 families during the highest demand month of November.
