The Waldo County YMCA supports our local area food pantries. Each month we select one or two of the food pantries on the list below. Every month on the third Friday you will find us collecting food at a local grocery store from 1:00-3:00 PM. You can also drop off food any day at the WCY Lobby. We will note specific needs for the food pantries of focus in the lobby.
