LIFE Food Pantry
The LIFE Pantry thanks The Butcher Block and all those who purchased raffle tickets for the quarter beef raffle.
Entrants purchased tickets for $25 each, all in hopes of winning the grand prize: a quarter cow worth more than $1500!
The Butcher Block raised an impressive $850 to enable LIFE Food Pantry to continue serving our neighbors in need! While the contest may be over, be sure to visit The Butcher Block for all your fresh meat needs.
Whether your beard is long, creative, crazy, or nonexistent, Railway Barber Shop hopes to see beard aficionados from all over the tri-state as they co-host the inaugural Oktoberfest Beard Competition!
The contest to determine the winning whiskers will take place at Loveland’s Oktoberfest on Saturday, September 13, at 4:00 on the Main Stage at Nisbet Park.
Enter yourself or cheer on your bearded buddies! The fee to compete is only $5 or a can of Manwich Sloppy Joe Sauce, and registration will begin just prior to the event.
All proceeds will benefit LIFE Food Pantry and further the mission of helping our neighbors in need. Judges will be looking for the longest beard, the most creative beard — even their favorite kids’ (pretend) beard.
Winners will be crowned and bragging rights will be granted. Stay tuned for more details. Ditch that razor and start growing!
A recent survey by the BBB Wise Giving Alliance found that nearly 70% of donors worry their personal information might be stolen or shared when giving to a new charity. In fact, 80% said they would stop or delay giving if their favorite charity experienced a data breach.
LIFE Food Pantry takes your privacy seriously. That’s why we use Harness, a trusted and secure giving platform that keeps your information private and protected. We never see, save, or have access to your financial information.
As online giving grows, so do concerns — especially around how charities handle donor data. But here’s the good news: You can support LIFE with confidence, knowing your generosity is protected every step of the way.

Donate from Your Home Garden
If your garden is overflowing, we’d love to help share your bounty! We gratefully accept fresh produce such as tomatoes, peppers, zucchini, and herbs. Fresh produce is a welcome and nutritious addition for our pantry guests, especially during the summer when fruits and vegetables are at their peak.
We’re halfway through 2025, and your support has been nothing short of extraordinary. The chart below shows what you’ve made possible.
