St. George is participating again this year with numerous Trumbull Faith-based communities and organizations in a program called Refill the Pantry to support The Trumbull Food Pantry.  The Refill the Pantry program began in 2022 when a collaboration of churches established a program to address food insecurity in the Bridgeport, CT area – Trumbull being one of those areas. Approximately 200 families use the Trumbull Food Pantry. As part of St. George’s continuing service outreach this year, we will be participating in 2 food drives.

We just completed our 1st food drive for this year when 194 lbs of shelf-stable pantry and personal care items were picked up on Monday, March 23rd by the Refill the Pantry organization and delivered to the Trumbull Food Pantry.

Additionally our March Charity Tray is collecting for the Trumbull Food Pantry to bolster our food donations.  Next Sunday, March 29th will be the last day to donate cash for this charity.

Many thanks to all of St. George’s parishioners who donated items over the past 4 weeks. Below are 2 photos. We will post the total results from this Refill the Pantry Spring Food Drive when they are available.
