Welcome to another edition of Where I come from, the podcast where the only requirement is to be from my Hometown, Milwaukee
It was one of my top 5 favorite Episode This week, I got a chance to sit down with two people from the Riverwest Food Pantry. We talk about what the food pantry means to the community. Who can take advantage of it, what’s next for them and even how Food pantries have impacted my life.
