6 The Courier sun • JUNE 26, 2014 for breaking news visit www.couriersun.com Glendale food pantry runs out of food BY ERIC JANKIEWICZ @ericjankiewicz [email protected] The cupboard is bare at a Glendale food pantry. The Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church is all out of food for Glendale’s needy, and the two women who run the pantry are asking residents to donate what they can. “Every day we hope people will come bring us food,” said Nancy Baer, who — along with Sister Margaret Raibaldi — runs the food pantry Monday through Thursday out of the church’s basement. “This pantry has evolved over the years but our goal has always been to help the hungry,” Raibaldi said. “We never let people leave here hungry.” While the church’s food stock often goes through low and high cycles, Baer and Sister Raibaldi said that this week’s low is worrying for them. They serve more than 100 families every week and a large group of single men, all of whom are from Glendale. “We offer them what we can,” said Sister Raibaldi, but for this week what they have in store is a few pounds of whole wheat pasta and some canned vegetables that won’t make enough for one family meal. The Catholic organization Knights of Columbus provides the Glendale pantry with hundreds of pounds of food during major holidays like Christmas and Thanksgiving but for the rest of the year, the pantry depends on donations from the community and the nearby St. Pancras Church in Ridgewood. Among the crowd favorites are macaroni and cheese and tuna. “And we definitely wouldn’t turn away a chicken,” Baer said. Anyone who wishes to donate can call 718-821-3285.
