Food pantries report that daily basic household supplies that we all use every day, such as toilet paper, soap, shampoo, laundry detergent, and baby diapers are seldom donated and that they are receiving an increasing number of requests for these kinds of supplies. Food stamps cannot be used to buy these items making it harder for families to replace them.

The Baldwinsville Volunteer Center has established the H.E.L.P. Project to assist our local food pantry meet these essential items needs. It is the BVC’s goal to enlist the help of area churches, booster clubs, businesses, student groups and service organizations to collect essential supplies on a regular basis.
