    Loveland, Ohio – The time has finally come for Loveland’s finest food pantry to open their new location!

    The LIFE (Loveland InterFaith Effort) Food Pantry announced Tuesday that they will be holding a ribbon-cutting ceremony at their new location, 541 Loveland-Madeira Road, on Thursday, September 10th at 4 PM. 

    LIFE moved locations from Prince of Peace to Shopper’s Haven in Loveland because of the growing demand during the COVID-19 pandemic. In the press release sent out by LIFE it stated:

    • a more dignified experience for our clients
    • the capability to extend hours of operation
    • space for our volunteers to stay safe by following social distancing regulations
    • closer proximity to many of our clients
    • an adjacent outdoor area to host food drives”

    LIFE Food Pantry Moves to a Beautiful new Location!

    Cassia Mattia is the Associate Editor of Loveland Magazine. She lives in the heart of it all in Historic Downtown.

    Loveland, Ohio – Loveland has always been known as the city of love, hence LOVE-land, but now Loveland is becoming more known as the city that keeps on giving! This has been proven time and time again through the countless ways Loveland and its businesses have given to local charities, families, and food pantries, including Loveland’s LIFE Food Pantry.

    LIFE, Loveland Interfaith Effort, Food Pantry has made it its mission to be “a faith and community-supported organization that provides food, financial assistance, and programs to those experiencing hardship in the greater Loveland area.” For years LIFE has serviced the Loveland area out of a 250 square foot space at Prince of Peace Church. This not only made it difficult to meet the high demand of Loveland residents in need of food supplies, but it also didn’t allow those in need to shop for their own items, especially during the COVID-19 Pandemic as there was not enough space for social distancing. 

    For Linda Bergholz, who is the Executive Director of LIFE Food Pantry, it was hard to ignore all the issues in regards to the pantry’s location and spacing, so Linda and her associates went on the hunt for a new location.

    Finally, Linda and the Food Pantry crew found the location of their dreams at Shopper’s Haven Plaza, located at 541 Loveland Madeira Road, formerly the Vision Arts Center. LIFE Food Pantry’s new location is 2,000 square feet and just a short walk for those who use the Food Pantry’s services on a weekly basis. 

    After hearing about this incredible opportunity for LIFE Food Pantry to serve more of those in need of food and more often here at Loveland Magazine we knew we had to visit Linda and the new location! 

    We are excited to present to you the community of Loveland an exclusive on-camera interview with Linda where she not only shows us the new space but also talks about LIFE’s history and what she sees for the future of the local food pantry! Without further ado here is Loveland Magazine TV’s on-camera interview with Linda Bergholz! 

    NOTE about the History of L.I.F.E

    Unable to find a new “home” the Loveland Free Store closed in 1999. Several months later the community was called together by resident David Miller, while volunteering with the Loveland Shalom Initiative (now the Loveland Initiative) to resurrect a program that was so vital to community life and thus, the L.I.F.E. Food Pantry was founded. Miller (the Publisher of Loveland Magazine) wrote the original business plan for the L.I.F.E Food Pantry.

    During the 1980s recession, Eleanor Baker founded the Loveland Free Store in a tiny extension of the laundry room at the MacArthur Park Apartments on Park Avenue.

    The Loveland Free Store had humble beginnings and purpose. Eleanor started giving people the food out of her own cabinet and then got other people involved. People in the complex would often have bare pantries, and other tenants sometimes had a little something extra. Moms brought what they could to the laundry room and shared with the other moms so their friend’s children and the elderly would have food to eat.

    The laundry room quickly became inadequate when the broader community found out what Eleanor was doing, chipped in and helped her collect food and daily necessities. The program grew and soon began organizing during Thanksgiving and Christmas to provide meals and presents for children. The Loveland Firefighters Association gave them space to operate from their Loveland Firefighter’s Hall at the intersection of St. Rt. 48, Broadway, and Second Street (the 5-Way intersection in Historic Downtown). Eventually, the Firefighters sold their building and it was demolished when the intersection was re-configured to what you see there today.

  • [Video Interview) Loveland’s Annual “Stuff-a-Cruiser” Event Significantly Surpasses 2019 Donations!

    [Video Interview) Loveland’s Annual “Stuff-a-Cruiser” Event Significantly Surpasses 2019 Donations!

    by Cassie Mattia

    Loveland, Ohio – There is no better time than now to give back to your local community and that’s just what The Loveland Police Department and the Loveland Citizens Police Academy Alumni did! On Saturday, July 18th at the Loveland Madeira Kroger the two local organizations sponsored the Annual “Stuff-a-Cruiser” Food Drive, in order to benefit Loveland’s very own LIFE Food Pantry.

    LIFE or Loveland Interfaith Effort is a faith and community-supported organization that provides food, financial assistance, and programs to those experiencing hardship in the greater Loveland area. LIFE is located at 101 S Lebanon Road and is open for donations Thursdays from 3 PM-6:30 PM and Saturdays from 9 AM-12:30 PM. LIFE also supplies Holiday Baskets during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Hanukkah, and runs both a Giving Shop, which provides eligible families the chance to shop for new gifts for their families and a Student LIFE Shop, that provides much-needed items to students in the Loveland School District. LIFE also has a food pantry called Tiger Pantry, which provides Loveland students in need with necessary food items.

    During the Summer months, the LIFE Food Pantry tends to get very low in food supplies because there are so many families that are at home (school is out which means no school lunch programs to fall back on) and in need of nutrition. This is why both the LPD and Loveland Citizens Police Academy sponsor the Annual “Stuff-a-Cruiser” specifically over the Summer.

    This year volunteers held the “Stuff-a-Cruiser” Food Drive beginning at 9 AM on July 18th at the Loveland Kroger and collected food items and cash donations the majority of the day! Those within the Loveland community and those just casually grocery shopping were able to bring food items from their home to “stuff the cruiser” or could simply use Kroger’s “Click List” and select specific items to go towards “LIFE Food Pantry Stuff-a-Cruiser.” Shoppers were also able to leave a cash donation in LIFE’s designated donation jar located on their Food Drive display!

    Peggy Goodwin, a member of the Loveland Citizens Police Academy, spent most of her day at the Food Drive event helping organize donations and couldn’t express enough how kind the community of Loveland is for the number of donations brought in!

    “Inside the gym at Prince of Peace – as soon as a cart came through the door, volunteers immediately started sorting the grocery items onto tables by commodity. The Pantry estimates the value of the groceries, gift cards, and monetary donations at $4,000,” Goodwin said, “This provided a much-needed boost to help fill their ‘cupboard.’ This event speaks volumes to the kindness and generosity of the Loveland community – whenever there is a need, you can count on our residents to step up and do what they can to take care of their neighbors. What a great place to call home! And thank you, Cassie and Dave, for giving up your Saturday morning to come out to talk with us, see what was going on, and now spreading the word about some of the great things Lovelanders do to help each other,” Goodwin added.

    Loveland Magazine Editor, David Miller, and I wanted to show our support for such a fantastic event so we spent time with Goodwin, LT. Amy Campbell, and many other volunteers at the “Stuff-a-Cruiser” Food Drive while taking in all the acts of kindness the Loveland community put forth through both food and cash donations. Both Miller and I brought over food donations ourselves as we encouraged those walking in and out of Kroger to do the same. Miller expressed that this particular Food Drive is one of the most important events held in Loveland every summer.

    “This time of year is so vastly different from the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday season when thinking about others comes so easy. Each penny families and seniors don’t have to spend on food can go instead to paying bills like rent and utilities,” Miller said, “These needs are something the greater community can help with and they really came through as usual with this reminder from the folks that worked so hard to pull it off.”

    Being in the presence of such generosity at the “Stuff-a-Cruiser” Food Drive made me feel as though I was helping so many families in need and I encourage those within the Loveland community to always make time to give back. Being kind can allow us all to receive the ultimate reward in life…HAPPINESS! Now please enjoy the interview with Peggy Goodwin and LT. Amy Campbell as well as the photo album below from the Food Drive!

    If you would like to donate food items or learn how you can get access to food benefits for you and your family go to http://www.lifefoodpantry.org/. Thank you once again Loveland for being a community filled with LOVE!

    Loveland, Ohio – It’s that time of year again for the Annual “Stuff the Cruiser” Food Drive sponsored by the Loveland Police Division and the Loveland Citizen Police Academy Alumni Association!

    The food drive is scheduled for Saturday, July 18th at the Loveland Kroger store from 9 AM until 1 PM. There will be many smiling volunteers set up outside Kroger to accept all donations. The donations that are collected will be taken to LIFE Food Pantry where they will be both sorted and dated.

    LIFE Food Pantry volunteer, Connie Rotterman is more than excited for this particular food drive because there have been so few since February in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.

    If you would like to provide over 300 families with the food they need please take a few minutes out of your day to stop by Loveland Kroger on July 18th between 9 AM and 1 PM to donate food items!

    #TigerCare in action across Loveland, Cincinnati and around the world!

    Loveland, Ohio – What began last school year with a couple of classes has grown into a building-wide student council on a mission of Tiger Care. Meet the newly formed Loveland Elementary School (LES) Kindness Council – with each third and fourth grade classroom represented and working toward monthly projects that create a Kindness Initiative throughout Loveland, Cincinnati and even across the world.

    “This new structure is creating school-wide unity and making our projects bigger than they have ever been before,” said LES Teacher Melissa Prenger, who was one of the teacher sponsors for the Kindness Initiative last school year.

    Prenger said students started the school year in September 2017 with a donation drive of personal care items to benefit Matthew 25: Ministries for hurricane survivors.

    “We were able to collect so many items, we needed two large vehicles to deliver it all,” said Prenger.

    “We were able to collect so many items, we needed two large vehicles to deliver it all,” said Prenger. “We collected socks again in October for Socktober. Because it was a school-wide initiative, we were able to collect over 3,000 pairs of socks to local homeless shelters in Cincinnati.”

    The Kindness Council members and their families delivered the donations, making the initiative reach beyond the school building walls. In November, students supported Read to Feed; each student in the school had sponsors support them for a week of reading. The proceeds of their sponsorship allowed LES to donate nearly $4,000 to Loveland’s LIFE Food Pantry. In December, the entire school made cards for soldiers serving away from their families, as well as for nursing home residents. The Kindness Council also designed and sold Holiday Grams, enabling over $800 to be donated to the Adopt A U.S. Soldier program.

    I’m incredibly proud of the students – they truly are spreading kindness, compassion, and empathy to not just the local community, but communities around the world.”

    “During the months of January and February, we collected pop can pull tabs for The Ronald McDonald House,” said Prenger. “We will take them and see how many pounds we were able to collect – but it is a lot! We also collected winter care items, to create winter care bags to be distributed to the homeless of Cincinnati. I’m incredibly proud of the students – they truly are spreading kindness, compassion, and empathy to not just the local community, but communities around the world.”
