Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈 At Common Pantry, we prioritize creating a welcoming space for all folks to receive food and social services with dignity -- especially when the LGBTQIA+ community faces disproportionately high rates of food insecurity. We are proud to value, stand with, and celebrate the LGBTQIA+ community not just this month, but every day.

Wishing everyone a pride month filled with joy and love! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷🖤🤎

Earlier this month, U.S. Senator Dick Durbin stopped by for a visit to chat with guests, learn first hand how recent SNAP changes are impacting people, and understand the upcoming biggest challenges. As gas and food prices continue to soar and the housing shortage remains, losing access to this critical social safety net program will be detrimental for many of our neighbors. We are honored to have welcomed the Senator and to have had these important conversations with him.
