CHICOPEE, Mass. - A Chicopee food pantry is taking its services on the road to ensure families in need have enough food to get by.
Lorraines Soup Kitchen & Food Pantry set up a mobile location at the public library Tuesday.
The service provides nonperishable food, produce and other edible items for locals who maybe in need.
On Tuesday afternoon, the soup kitchen hosted a food drive next to the Chicopee Public Library.
Board Of Directors member Al Picard said they've seen more people show up as the weather has gotten colder, and added that it's important for their pantry to be as active as possible.
"The goal is to make sure that in these tough economic times for some folks, that we can take care of them by providing them some of the necessary food items they need," Picard said.
He said people can support the soup kitchen by volunteering, as well as making donations of food and money. Anyone interested in learning more about the local service can do so on their website.
