Like the rest of the world, the Philippines has been hit hard by COVID-19 and a lot of people are in need of help. This is where the Community Pantry Philippines comes in. Led by Ana Patricia Non, the Community Pantry Philippines is a group of foodies or individuals who want to help fellow Filipinos in need. They set up a pantry in Quezon City and in Cebu City, which people can go to and collect the food they need for their families. This initiative has been also followed by celebrities like COVID-19 who recently opened one during her birthday. These are people who are willing to help their neighbors in need while waiting for the government to do its job.
In this article, we will share with you a list of community pantries in different parts of the country.
