This Woman turned her backyard into a food pantry for the community!

Desiree' LaMarr-Murphy has been on a mission making sure families have enough food during the pandemic.
The line starts outside her home several hours before Murphy's Giving Market opens every Tuesday. Her makeshift food pantry started by helping nearly a dozen families, and now it serves close to 100 families every week. Many in the community are overjoyed by Murphy's huge heart. She has been feeding families from her own home ever since COVID-19 hit. The all-hands-on-deck effort takes place every Tuesday and begins at noon sharp. For the West Philadelphia native, the mission is personal. She has dealt with food insecurity herself after a fire destroyed her home a few years ago

Wish i was there i have no food

[@chelsealaine2550]

I went to a food pantry in Torrington ct and the milk and canned food was expired, i called , rhey said they have limits but they do give expired food bc it is still good. It didnt feel good eating expired food

[@Teresa-pt1bh]

An expired date does not mean that something is bad. Obviously for people spoiled with choice it may not be good enough and that is fine, I am sure there will be people who will take it with gratitude.

@@Teresa-pt1bh I get it though because a high medical bill later is not fun. They shouldn't give away expired foods.

A church reached out and helped with what they had and it wasn't good enough? This story and movement is so nice until I heard that. Ungrateful.
