Port Jervis resident Mary Capobianco seldom seeks help at a food pantry, but as Christmas comes closer, she has found herself waiting in line at a local charity for some eggs.

This was the last food pantry for the year by the nonprofit Easterseals’ Project Discovery. The local project has operated in Port Jervis for almost 20 years.
