Hello Neighbours! We would like to thank each and every one of you who has been directly or indirectly involved with the food cupboard outside our store . It has been there for only 3 months but the involvement of the community is great. We have also received some feedback mainly in the form of concerns like "many foods are not safe if it is too cold or too hot outside", "many people taking a lot of items as soon as somebody posts a photo of the cupboard being full", "many people wanting to donate toiletries, but it being not safe to keep it with food" , "the cupboard being a bit small" etc
So, since the assumption is that people want it to be there but probably have it better organized, we would like to take your suggestions on how to do it better. Please feel free to leave a comment or send us a message on facebook, or come in the store to talk to us. We would surely consider all suggestions and go with what would be feasible. Also, we will need our landlord approval if we use more space outside. Below is our plan and feel free to give suggestions to make it better.
We wish to get a bigger cupboard/shed alongside the present one, something like in the photo. Use foil insulation inside it. Have an insulated foam box inside for things like milk etc with lots of ice packs in it to keep it cool. And use the present cupboard for toiletries.
Any donations for bigger cupboard, foam cooler/ice box, foil insulation etc are welcome.
Thank you for all the support.
