London Public LibraryOpen Hands Free Pantry: Every Tuesday 10 AM-Noon & Every Thursday 2-4 PM
The Open Hands Free Pantry is a no cost community resource from the Springfield-Clark Community Initiative, focused on neighbors supporting neighbors with food, hygiene products, and caring assistance. Rooted in faith and led by volunteers, it brings people together one box at a time. Guests can receive free boxes that may include canned goods, fresh produce, hygiene items, and other essential supplies. The pantry follows a weekly schedule on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Attendees are asked to RSVP for the day they plan to visit, and they may sign up for both days. Volunteers are welcome to help pack boxes, distribute items, or spread the word, making a consistent impact through this recurring effort. Hosted by the Springfield-Clark Community Initiative at the First Seventh-Day Adventist Church. For questions, contact the Springfield-Clark Community Initiative at (937) 332-3939.
