Annual Food Pantry Fundraiser at Paulding First Presbyterian Church

After a blockbuster 2023, where $5,000 was raised by the community for the Caring & Sharing Food Pantry building project, the First Presbyterian Church of Paulding (look for the yellow bricks) will be offering booth spaces in its parking lot during the 127 Yard Sale once again. Spaces are available from Wednesday, July 31, through Saturday, August 3, with setup beginning at 4pm on Tuesday, July 30. This heavily trafficked site, positioned on the corner of US 127 and West Caroline Street, about half a block north of Fiesta Habaneros and downtown Paulding, offers high visibility and repeat year-after-year customers. Restrooms, air conditioning, ice cream treats, home baked goods and soda will be available for customers inside the church, as well as even more bargain shopping. 

Proceeds from the 127 Yard Sale will again go to support the recently constructed Caring & Sharing Food Pantry, located at 318 Walnut Street in Paulding. This new building hosts food preparation classes and additional outreach services for food insecure members of the community. Information about the building project and services can be reached by contacting the food pantry at (419) 399-9562, emailing pauldingfoodpantry@gmail.com and exploring the Caring & Sharing Food Pantry page on Facebook. 

For information contact Event Coordinator Brent Fishbaugh at (419) 378-2068 or the First Presbyterian Church of Paulding, Ohio at (419) 399-2438.
