Building for Food
Through the generous assistance of a long-term pantry volunteer, FISH opened its West Scott Avenue location opened on November 6, 2007. This new facility consists of about 8,800 square feet of specially designed space that includes an off-loading dock and large cooler and freezer storage.
This pantry provides 3 major benefits to our mission:
- People living west of Broadway who need food assistance will once again have a food pantry accessible to them.
- Other FISH Hospitality Pantries in Knoxville share in large donations that we are able to receive at the new facility which will has an off-loading dock, a large cooler and freezer storage.
- Finally, this new pantry building serves as an inspiring model to other cities and communities, establishing a new standard for direct service facilities, as we demostrate the benefits of being capable of receiving more food to serve more people.
There are always new opportunities on the horizon so keep watching this site for information on additional building campaigns.
