Barney Corrigan from Westville, NJ has been hit hard during this pandemic.  He had to shut down his catering business but he still wanted to help people during these tough times.

He came with an idea to collect a few canned goods and offer them to people in need. He built a small food pantry for the cans on the front lawn of his home. He took to social media and his food pantry blew up over night.

He outgrew his lawn space so he has moved to his garage.  The pantry is open every other Saturday from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Great job Barney!
