Notes

Description from donor: "Photograph of food pantry output numbers of dry prepackaged bags and numbers of fresh prepackaged bags on 04/07/2020."
Additional description from donor: "During the course of the pandemic, I worked at a local food pantry. Before the pandemic hit, we served around 90 families per week. After the pandemic, we transitioned into contactless pick-up and were serving around 120 families per day, sometimes having to turn people away. Our numbers stayed consistent throughout the course of the hardest months of the pandemic, from March until December 2020. This photograph shows the number of bags that went out on April 07, 2020."
