Important Porch Pantry Update – Please Read

I want to address some serious issues that have been taking place with the Porch Pantry.

Running a small business is already a full-time job. Adding the pantry has been a labor of love, but it has also required an enormous amount of time, energy, and constant attention. Kyla and I give everything we have to keep this mission going, and it has become clear that some boundaries must be stated plainly.

Since the beginning of the pantry, we have dealt with repeated and intentional abuse of this resource. One individual was consistently emptying the pantry at night despite being asked multiple times to stop and to leave food for others. This behavior continued daily. Last Sunday, the situation escalated to the point that the LaGrange Police Department had to be involved, and this individual has been criminally trespassed from the property.

I have since learned that food taken from this pantry was being sold to other unhoused individuals in our community.

Let me be absolutely clear:
This pantry exists to help people through a hard moment—not to be exploited, resold, or stripped of resources meant for children, families, and neighbors in genuine need. That behavior is unacceptable and will not be tolerated.

Any abuse of this pantry will be stopped.
Any theft from this pantry will be prosecuted.

This business is private property, and that fact will not be forgotten.

The Porch Pantry is a blessing because our community respects it. The moment it is abused, it threatens the ability for us to keep it open at all. I believe deeply in compassion, but I also believe in discipline and accountability, and both will be practiced at 212 Hill Street.

We will continue to help our community, but it will be done with clear rules and firm boundaries to protect the people this pantry is truly meant to serve.

Thank you to those who respect this space, this mission, and the work behind it.

Saturday, December 13 – Porch Pantry Update 🤍

Here is today’s pantry update! I’ve also included a photo of our pantry stock shelf so you can see where we’re at, we are starting to get very limited on some items.

✨ Today the pantry and fridge are restocked and open until 2:00 PM. ✨

If you are able to donate, we are in severe need of:
• Canned meats
• Canned pastas
• Pouch meats
• Easy, ready-to-eat foods

Over the last 72 hours, I’ve had the opportunity to meet several local teenagers who are currently living in very difficult and unstable situations. They’ve stopped by each day, and I’ve been able to give them a couple days’ worth of supplies as best I can. They’ve shared that some of the biggest needs right now are:
• Easy-to-eat foods
• Socks
• Hand warmers
• Thermal blankets
• Regular blankets

Due to the size of my store and pantry, I unfortunately cannot accept used blankets or clothing at this time. However, we can store new, unopened packs of socks and new, unopened blankets in bins for the winter and rotate those items out daily as needed.

I will also be creating an Amazon wish list for the pantry today and will share that link for those who prefer to ship items directly to the store. Several of you have asked for this, thank you.

At this time, there is $40 in Cash App and $25 in Venmo, and I will be using those funds on Monday to purchase cold food items for the porch fridge.

If you’d like to donate — whether items or monetary — we would be so incredibly grateful.

🕊 Donation hours:
Tuesday–Friday: 10:30–5:00
Saturday: 10:30–2:00

You may also donate via Cash App or Venmo at any time. Every single penny donated to this pantry goes directly back into the pantry and into helping members of our community.

I truly cannot thank you enough for helping me continue this blessing. 🤍
