🖤MENTAL HEALTH CHECK-IN 🖤
How are you doing?

❤️ I’m doing great
💛 I'm tired
💙 I’m okay
🤷🏽‍♀️ I’m meh
😕Things are tough, I’m struggling
🥺I’m having a hard time and wouldn’t mind if someone reached out to me
💔 I’m in a really dark place. Could use someone to talk to.

Let someone know how you’re doing 💕

Today I'm 💛

Dear Community,
We are eternally grafetul for the support you have shown us throughout the years. Thank you for giving this social worker a chance to try something and offer food prepared by our lovely refugee and immigrant neighbors. It was truly an unique experience! As early as Nov. 1st we will no longer be occupying our beautiful little building. We are still working out the kinks and may occasionally be available for catering and a few select summer events. If so, we would rent a community kitchen.
Grape Leaf will be focusing on mental health efforts in the community. We have loved launching into the food world , but are ready for another adventure!
I will keep this page active and post about what we are doing for mental health!
Sending peace and gratitude💜🍇
~Patience~

I’m sure going to miss this little food pantry. We just got a call from the city saying they are not allowed. I have seen so many people donate and so many people come to get the donations. I feel it has made a great difference! 😢🍇💜
*updated they said as a Commercial kitchen we can distribute food boxes to the community. We just cannot have a self-serve pantry. It is a overall state regulation* — I would love to be able to have the manpower to distribute food boxes to the community, unfortunately I just do not have the time! 💜— to everyonewho donated! 

Due to lack of pre-orders we will not open tonight!
We will post our menu for next weekend. 🤗
