Prudential Connecticut Realty's Newtown Office located at 33 Church Hill Road is a collection point for the F.A.I.T.H. Food Pantry. The F.A.I.T.H. Food Pantry has been in existence at the St. John's Episcopal Church at 5 Washington Avenue, Sandy Hook for 25 years. F.A.I.T.H. stands for Food Assistance Immediate Temporary Help. The Food Pantry is all volunteer and is always looking for volunteers, food and money. F.A.I.T.H. Food Pantry is a 501(c)(3) organization and donations are tax-deductible.
Food donations are always welcome, but please do not donate items past their expiration date. The pantry welcomes simple foods like tuna, spaghetti sauce, pasta, macaroni and cheese, chicken noodle soup, cereals, pasta (boxed and canned), ravioli, stew, chili, pancake mix and syrup, tomato products, and corned beef or kielbasa. Juice is also accepted, as are treats for kids like snacks and juice boxes.
Cleaning supplies, detergent (for laundry and dishes), shampoo, deodorant, toothbrushes and toothpaste, tampons, paper towels, toilet paper, and other necessary items are also always welcome.
During these tough times, donations are needed more than ever. Prudential Connecticut Realty is open 7 days a week from 9 am to 5 pm - please feel free to drop off your donated items during this time.

Nice Blog Richelle!
Bob & Richelle.. This is a wonderful jesture that Prudential has done. Now if everyone could donate a canned good, or a box of pasta, it would make a huge impact at the neighborhood food banks.
Hi Valerie! Thank you for your response to our post. We recently received a donation to our office from a child's birthday party. She told her friends to bring items to donate to the Food Pantry rather than gifts. The number of bags that came into the office was incredible! It was really nice to see.

How is it going? I have been recently interested in participating in volunteer work and haven't been lucky enough to find any to participate in. If you need any extra volunteers i would love to get some dates of events that I can help in. Please contact me by email or by cell phone (860) 729 9069. Thank you very much.
