The Community Essentials Pantry was created after a WCHR staff member identified a gap in the needs of the consumers we serve. Although there was assistance programs for basic needs such as food and clothing, there was not a local program to assist clients with personal and household hygienic items. this led to the development of the Community Essentials Pantry. Funding for the pantry comes through grants and other donations both from businesses and individuals.
