The table, dubbed as the “P. Noval Community Pantry,” is packed with vegetables, rice, canned goods, and packs of instant noodles.
“Magbigay ayon sa kakayahan, kumuha batay sa pangangailangan,” a sign displayed on the table read.
Toots Vergara, one of the managers of Mang Tootz Food House, said he was inspired by the community pantry set up along Maginhawa Street in Quezon City.
“Huwag mahiyang kumuha, nandoon lang po iyon (Do not be shy to get some items, they’ll just be there),” he said in his Facebook post.
Vergara encouraged those living nearby to drop off their spare grocery items so they can help others. The table will be open to receive donations everyday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
