KAUKAUNA, Wis. (WFRV) - The Kaukauna Public Library says it is in desperate need of donations to help keep the Little Free Pantry fully stocked with food.

The following kinds of items are urgently needed: • Noodles • Sauce • Rice • Canned soup • Peanut butter • Canned meats • Jelly • Cereal • Oatmeal • Canned Fruit

Canned vegetables are not needed as they're the only item that's in high stock. Library director Ashley Thiem-Menning says that the pantry has been around since 2017, and that while holiday seasons see a spike in donations, summer is far different for pantries.

"Summer is hard for a lot of pantries," Thiem-Menning said. "For most of us, this is a challenging time of year, as people maybe kind of forget that the need is year-round, not seasonal."
