Faith Laukon is the coordinator of the new Marshallese Food Pantry in north Springdale.

A new food pantry specifically for Marshallese families in Northwest Arkansas has opened. The pantry, which stocks foods that Pacific Islanders prefer and need, especially due to the COVID-19 pandemic, was established a few weeks ago by Arkansas Coalition of Marshallese, headquartered in Springdale, and is coordinated by Faith Laukon.

Jacqueline Froelich is an investigative reporter and news producer for Ozarks at Large.
