Dear Loveland Magazine Readers,
The LIFE Food Pantry is so excited to be open to clients doing Choice Pantry shopping instead of curbside pickup! Clients will bring their own bags and make their selections with a personal shopper—fresh produce, dairy, bakery items and meats are available along with shelf stable canned and packaged items such as pasta and sauce, soup, rice and so much more. LIFE also offers household and personal care items.
In addition, LIFE has changed their service from every 28 days to every 14, so clients can come twice a month, making the most of the fresh items.
LIFE is located at 541 Loveland Madeira Rd. in the Shopper’s Haven Plaza, serving all of the 45140 ZIP code area. Hours are Tuesday through Saturday 10 AM until noon as well as Tuesday/Thursday 4 PM until 6:30 PM.
Please email lifefoodpantry@yahoo.com or call 513-583-8222 for additional information or questions. And remember—we are having our annual Feed the Hungry campaign currently—just a small monthly recurring donation helps so many in need!
Sincerely,
Linda Bergholz, Director
