A compliance team says it found serious pest and cleanliness issues, but some think the order to throw almost everything away was an overreaction during a time of historic need for food assistance.
CLEVELAND, Ohio — A busy Cleveland food pantry recently had to dispose of virtually all of its food and temporarily shut down after a Food Bank inspection found evidence of mice.
“We had over 100 people waiting in line, and when they saw us taking out carts of food and throwing it into the dumpster, they asked us why,” she said. The pantry has had to halt its three-times weekly distributions for the time being. The closure comes as the Food Bank sees historic demand for food assistance. Brown said the pantry alone serves several thousand people each month.
Bigman’s Family Center has been a long-time partner of the Greater Cleveland Food Bank. Recently, the Greater Cleveland Food Bank began receiving calls about the cleanliness of Bigman’s Family Center from concerned community members. Our compliance team conducted a site visit with Bigman’s, which revealed serious pest and cleanliness issues that need to be addressed.
