INDIANAPOLIS — According to IU Indianapolis, there are over 200 food pantries across Marion County. Each have different issues.
"Some pantries operate and serve like a thousand families per week, and some serve maybe 100 families per week,” Lou Lenzi, a Professor of Practice IU Indianapolis, said. “So, they are all kind of different in terms of their volume. And that was the beauty of the project, each team could zero in on those pantries and look for ways to make those improvements.
Now, the labor is reduced because staff simply rolls the food out rather than packing it in boxes and handing it to clients. Clients also now get to choose what they would like to take home with them. Now, clients like Prater will be able to get more of the things she does use, especially since she has several mouths to feed.
