A charitable initiative that started in Quezon City has now reached the City of Golden Friendship

Inspired by the Maginhawa Community Pantry, Kagay-anons across the city have put up their own makeshift pantries to help their respective communities get the basic goods they need.

Generous residents have set up makeshift pantries filled with basic necessities such as vegetables, rice, eggs, canned goods, and even Face masks and alcohol, and a sign that read “Community Pantry.” 

Additional signs such as “Kuha lang sa kinahanglan. Hatag lang sa makaya (Get what you need. Give what you can)” and “Nothing is more respectable than HONESTY” are even placed to remind people to only get what they need so everyone can have the chance to avail the free supplies, and for donors to give what they can.

Check out below some of the places where you get or can donate goods and basic necessities:

Pasil Road, Barangay Kauswagan
