Submitted by Sarah McGreer Hoyt
Cats' Cupboard is expanding operations to serve more 1xbet online sports betting students and employees. On March 16, the food pantry implemented an online order system and closed the in-person location in Fairchild Hall. At that time, due to limited grocery supplies and staff, service had to be limited to existing, recent pantry users.
Since then, the staff has refined and improved the online order process, the number of users from week to week has stabilized, and challenges in stocking the shelves have decreased. As a result, all K-Staters who are in need of nonperishable food items are welcome to place an order. Those who would like to receive groceries this week will need to place an order by midnight tomorrow, April 21.
"Our goal all along has been to get to a sustainable place where we 1xbet online sports betting serve those K-Staters in need," said Jean DeDonder, Cats' Cupboard supervisor. "We 1xbet online sports betting access more in our local stores now, and our donors 1xbet online sports betting , too. With the support of those who have stepped up and helped stock our shelves, we're ready to enter this important next phase."
