<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">In light of the recent events surrounding COVID-19, we wanted to share an update on The Lion Food Pantry. The health and safety of our pantry visitors, staff, and volunteers
is very important to us. While we strive to continue providing food assistance, at this time, we need to adapt the way we are distributing food. Effective immediately we will be transitioning to pre-packaged bags of food rather than our typical “choice shopping
model”. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
