Camden Life Center Outdoor Food Pantry Installed
The Camden Life Center at 20 Main Street has installed a small outdoor cupboard that houses a brand-new outdoor food pantry. Similar in style to the “Little Free Library” book lending cabinets available in towns across the country, the pantry will provide 24/7 access to non-perishable food items, hygiene products and other essentials to any members of the community who may need them.

Hello! I hope you have been enjoying your summer as much as I have. Sunshine and time outdoors always boosts my mood and helps me keep active. For August, we celebrate “Summer Sun and the Great Outdoors” (see page 2 for more information) and all the health benefits that it brings.

Hello! Stephenie here! Many people ask me when I’m out and about what the Camden Life Center is about and how they can help support our programs and services so I thought I would share. One way is by donating items that will be passed on to those in need. For a list of items most needed, please see page 4. Another way you can support the Camden Life Center is by attending one or more of our many events, classes, or functions. Your attendance will help the host of each of these feel wanted, needed, and valued.
