A new community pantry has been placed in Merriam Woods. Known as The Good Neighbor Project, this free pantry is similar to the Blessings Boxes throughout the Branson and Hollister areas, and is available to anyone who needs extra help with food, hygiene items or basic necessities. The Good Neighbor Projects guarantee no applications, no questions and no judgment. Anyone who could use a little extra help is welcome to visit the pantry and take what you need. Donations
