The Kentwood Police Department is excited to announce a community giving event, “Cram the Cruiser,” in partnership with Sam’s Club (4326 28th St SE, Kentwood) to benefit the Kentwood Little Free Pantry.
With demand running high, the pantry has been running low, and this event provides an opportunity for the community to help stock it for residents in need.
Community members are invited to help stock the pantry by donating non-perishable food items on the following dates and times:
- Saturday, Dec. 13, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
- Saturday, Dec. 20, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Donation Location:
Sam’s Club, 4326 28th St SE, Kentwood
Kentwood Police cruisers will be stationed out front, with officers ready to receive donations and connect with community members. All contributions will go directly to the Kentwood Little Free Pantry at 355 48th St SE, Kentwood, MI, providing support to local residents in need.
How You Can Help:
- Bring non-perishable food items to donate to the Kentwood officers during the event.
- Share the event with friends, family, and local groups to spread the word.
- Encourage local businesses and organizations to get involved.
“Through the ‘Cram the Cruiser’ event, our community has the chance to come together and make a meaningful impact for residents in need this holiday season,” said Kentwood Police Chief Bryan Litwin.
