Valley City Community Group, LifeSpring Community Church and the Valley City Boy Scouts of America Troop 502 have combined their efforts to coordinate, build and install a Food Pantry Box at the Valley City Depot, 6615 Center Road, for those in need.

The Boy Scouts used their skills and materials to build a box with an operational door and installed it on Saturday, May 16, 2020 in a secure lighted location with the blessings of Liverpool Township trustee Paul Schaefer who said “We [the trustees] are absolutely happy to “Okay” this for the community.  It’s a great idea and thanks to LifeSpring [Community Church], Valley City Boy Scouts and the Valley City Community Group for doing this.”

A banner has been placed near the driveway to promote the food box, which also lists LifeSpring Community Church’s Food Pantry phone number on it for those citizens who may need further assistance.  Valley City’s local churches have promoted the Food Pantry’s services and new Food Box to their congregations, and volunteers are monitoring the Food Box daily to make certain there are items available and that they are current.

If you or someone you know needs food assistance, please contact LifeSpring Food Pantry at 330-328-3091.  Their monthly drive through food pantry is the third Saturday of the month from 10am-12pm at 1638 Lester Road, Valley City, Ohio.  We all appreciate the Valley City community who have come together to help each other in this time of need.
