The City of Lansing’s monthly Mobile Food Pantry will be held on Saturday, March 21, 2020, at Tabernacle of David (2645 W. Holmes Rd. Lansing, MI) from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. while supplies last. The City of Lansing’s Human Relations and Community Services (HRCS) Department has worked closely with the Greater Lansing Food Bank to ensure that the Mobile Food Pantry will run as usual with additional precautions to keep everyone safe and healthy during the COVID-19 pandemic.  

“We must continue to provide necessary services like the Mobile Food Pantry for our most vulnerable residents. It’s critical that those in need still have food to keep their families healthy and fed,” said Mayor Schor. “The City of Lansing’s HRCS Department and Greater Lansing Food Bank are working together to take every precaution to reduce the amount of contact people have with each other while still ensuring that needs are met.”  

Protective Measures:

• The Mobile Food Pantry will be a “drive-through” service.
• Families will not go into the church to congregate.
• Volunteers will put premade boxes of food into cars.
• Volunteers will complete paper registration near the car.
• Necessary traffic control will be implemented.
