Now James is running the smoothes bank I've seen in all thier years thier 5 stars for sure clean only thing I see happening is the people that live thier in the shelter abuse the resources thier hord the stuff and then nobody else had a chance to get even the slightest basic things like bread out side they take excessive amounts of anything instead of letting others have any

Not sure if there is a good time for pickup of food. The food bank is more than likely empty of the most important nutritional foods. No good fresh vegetables and meats. The workers are very slow, and short on their tempers. The place could also use a good cleaning up.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Not in every case. On Saturday and some holidays they close early. I don't know why you had that experience.

Please call the St. Leo Food Connection to inquire about food donations and drop off times or accepted food items.

I have two boxes of food to donate. I would need someone to lift and carry out of my car. When should I come by? It is canned food and grains. Thank you.

David Flanagan | Aug 13, 2022

I agree that bringing a piece of recent mail that has your first and last name. Other then this, be honest and bring your own bags for carrying the foods back.
