The Little Free Pantry on Maple Street

On Maple Street, there is a small wooden box with a glass door.

It is called a Little Free Pantry.

Anyone can put food in it, and anyone can take food out.

Last winter, a heavy snowstorm closed many shops.

Mrs.

Lee, who lives across the street, saw that some families had no bread or milk.

She called her neighbors and asked them to help.

The next morning, people brought cans of soup, rice, and fresh fruit.

A boy named Tom drew a bright sign, and his sister taped it to the box.

Now the pantry is always full, and the neighbors take turns checking it every day.
