A volunteer waits for a cart to be loaded at the Sikeston Food Pantry by Missy Rice, agency relations and program director for the SEMO Food Bank Friday. While many needed some extra help for the holiday season, the need does not end with Christmas. "We're here to serve year round," said Karen Green, executive director of the Food Pantry, also pictured. Open from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. Fridays, the Sikeston Food Pantry typically serves around 100 people each week.
