Our big van is starting to struggle, and it may be time to retire it in the next few months. Several mechanics have looked at it, and we’ve done everything possible to extend its life. We have been truly blessed to use this van over the past year—it has literally helped feed thousands of people in our community.
As we begin looking for a certified used vehicle, we are asking for your support. You can help by:
- Donating funds toward the purchase of a new van
- Donating items for upcoming auctions
- Bidding on our auctions when they are posted
- Lending or sharing a larger vehicle if you have one available
In the meantime, my parents have generously offered their vehicle to ease the burden on the big van.
Please note: I am a registered non-profit but not a charity, so I cannot issue tax receipts.
If you’d like to contribute, donations can be sent by EMT to blslittlefreepantries@gmail.com.
If just 400 people donated $25 each, we could raise $10,000 toward a new van. This goal is truly achievable with your help.
Thank you, as always, for walking with me through both the triumphs and the challenges. Every bit of support makes a difference.
Donor Acknowledgements 🙏
We are deeply grateful to everyone who has already contributed to help us reach our goal of purchasing a new van. Your generosity keeps us moving forward and feeding our community.
