THEY CURRENTLY PROVIDE- HOME FURNISHINGS, APPLIANCES, AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS TO FAMILIES IN NEED.
THE OPEN SALE DAY WILL RUN MUCH LIKE HOW THE FISH CHOICE PANTRY IS OPERATED. ACCORDING TO DIRECTOR LAURA PRICE – CLIENTS WILL NEED TO TAKE A NUMBER FROM THE SIGN AND WAIT IN THEIR VEHICLES. THEY WILL THEN INVITE EACH FAMILY IN ACCORDING TO THEIR NUMBER, AND THEY WILL FILL OUT AN APPLICATION. EACH ADULT IN THE HOUSEHOLD WILL NEED TO PROVIDE THEIR PICTURE I.D.
