Food Pantry In Desperate Need Of Donations
Belvidere Boone County Food Pantry is in desperate need of donations this holiday season. The pantry is looking for toys to get to underprivileged kids as well. And, according to WIFR, the needed by families in Boone County is tremendous.
80% of people in Boone County qualify for state and federal food assistance according to Feeding America's Food Insecurity 2015 survey.
The rep from the food pantry told WIFR the organization does receive grants but the cost of needed supplies exceeds the funds. The Belvidere Boone County Food Pantry is located in Capron, find more information here.
