The Loaves & Fishes Food Pantry averages distributing over 300 boxes of food each week, averaging 35 pounds of food/box consisting of frozen meats, canned vegetables and fruits, dry goods, and fresh produce. While we receive a substantial amount of food donated, the remainder we must purchase from the Food Bank of East Alabama @ $.27 / pound
