Our Story
Caritas Food Pantry was started by Richard and Shirley Petroski in 2006. It began in a small room of the rectory at St. Jerome's Parish. The pantry grew and remained at this location until 2014 when St Jerome's was closed. At this point the pantry was relocated to St. Mary's, in the former school building adjacent to the church.
Kelly Glover became the director of the pantry in 2011, and continues the tradition of servicing all who enter our doors!
