Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get access to the Wolf Pack Pantry?
Just ask!!! There are no requirements to access items in the food pantry. A Google form will be sent out through JMC where you can sign up to have a box ready for you on that Wednesday.
Families: May access the pantry during posted pantry hours. If that time does not work, the easiest way to access the pantry is to contact the middle school office and set up a time to come in.
Students: May access the pantry during posted pantry hours or contact a teacher, principal, secretary, or staff member and let them know they are interested.
IKM-Manning Staff Members: May access during posted pantry hours or by talking to any secretary or Gerri Ann Wagner.
Who will know that I have visited the Wolf Pack Pantry?
Access to the pantry is confidential. We do keep track of the number of individuals and families that use the pantry each month. Reporting these numbers monthly allows us to order more food for the following month. You will only be asked how many people will be consuming the items when you pick up food. Other reporting information will be discussed individually as needed.
Is there a limit to the number of times I can access the pantry?
There is not a limit. As long as food is available, you will be able to use the pantry.
May I use the community food pantry and the Wolf Pack Pantry?
Yes. We work together and are both supported by the Food Bank of Iowa. We hope families will use both as a resource.
What items will I receive when I come?
You may request to have items boxed or bagged when you arrive or, depending on the timing, may be able to “shop” for the items you like. Some individual items may be available as “grab and go” for students.
What if I have additional questions?
You may reach out to Gerri Ann Wagner gwagner@ikm-manning.k12.ia.us to ask questions.
