Every weekday morning at 9:00, you will find Jack Cunneen, director of the Murphysboro Food Pantry unlocking the door at the 14th St. location where volunteers provide food for those in need. Cunneen, the pantry’s only paid employee, has been involved for over 10 years. He says the best part of his job is being able to help people who really need it. The food pantry began as an organization tied to the Murphysboro Ministerial Alliance. But in 1984, the food pantry became a separate entity, said Jane Williams, volunteer and member of the pantry’s board of directors. However, the alliance continues to provide donations to the pantry. Williams got involved about five years ago at the suggestion of a friend from her church. “I loved it so much,” she said. “I loved the people we met and it felt like we were doing something worthwhile.” Clients of the food pantry must meet Department of Agriculture income guidelines before they use the food pantry, and the recent downturn in the economy has brought more and more people in need of help. In 2008, 17 million households experienced food insecurity, or were unable to adequately feed their family, up from 13 million households in 2007, according to a report by the Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service, released in November 2009. “We are seeing it seep into people I never thought it would,” Williams said. “It’s amazing how many new people we sign up.” Once a person registers, they are handed a box of basic food supplies including frozen meat and canned goods. Then, they are able to browse for other items to fill out their needs. Recently, the food pantry moved to its new location on 14th Street, in the former Bill and Gene’s grocery store building. The added space has been a huge improvement and has made life easier for all involved. “It’s ten times better,” Cunneen said.
