While there are two (that I know of) substantial food pantries in Claremore that do wonderful things in the community, you may not know that there are smaller pantries, too.
Each of the Claremore public schools has a pantry. These are especially utilized at Will Rogers Junior High and Westside. If you would like to donate to those pantries, please contact Crystal Campbell at crystalwcampbell44@gmail.com to schedule drop-off arrangements. Note: the schools are in need of Nutri-grain and granola bars at this time!
Additionally, the Rogers County Sheriff’s Office has a pantry that is open to the community. It’s located in the Rogers County Jail at 201 S. Cherokee.
Donations are always welcome! Items like individually wrapped crackers, beef jerky, granola bars, and single serving meals like noodles and mac & cheese are always appreciated. Also, individual personal care items like soap, toothpaste, and deodorant are welcome.
