Loaves & Fishes is moving to a shift model that better accommodates the numbers of clients and volunteers on site. The combination of a new tenant in the building immediately west, plus the sheer volume of clients and volunteers present during each shopping session necessitated the change, according to Loaves & Fishes.

“Our neighbor has generously allowed us to use many of that property’s parking spaces while he has been waiting for a new tenant,” said Jane Macdonald, Loaves & Fishes Community Pantry senior program director in a release. “Now we will welcome that business by being a good neighbor.”
