If you've got pantry space to share, the Greer Soup Kitchen could use it. WSPA reports donations are down as the kitchen prepares to feed more than 100 low-income and homeless neighbors on Thanksgiving. Executive Director Martha Bennett said she knows families and adults are strapped for funds but would gratefully accept any donation.
The kitchen serves lunch six days a week and supper on Sundays
| Meal | Hours |

The kitchen, run by Daily Bread Ministries, started in 1990 with a single meal on its first day. It now serves more than 150 meals daily, with about 125 volunteers a week from more than 50 area churches.
