PILOT ROCK — An open house at the Pilot Rock Food Pantry will feature a raffle and fundraiser.
The food bank recently moved to a new facility in March. The event is Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 222 S.W. Third St.
The food pantry obtained a grant through the Oregon Food Bank, said pantry director Teresa LaChapelle. The money provided them with the ability to purchase carts, air conditioners and shelving, which is an integral part of the operation.
“We are very proud of our facility and what we have to offer,” LaChapelle said.
The pantry serves an average of about 45 families each month. LaChapelle said they are supported by the generosity of local businesses, individuals and local churches, who provide either money, food or other needed supplies.
