The Tucson Free Pantry is hoping to feed the hungry by installing pantries across the city. 

The pantry is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for anyone in Tucson as a way for the community to help each other. 

People can take from it or add to it. 

The director, Chaparrelle Mogavero-Cline, says the organization hopes to feed those in need, without them feeling ashamed. 

"It can mediate shame by people being able to use them without a form of ID or without having someone there to feel that they're ashamed of approaching it," Mogavero-Cline told KGUN9.

The organization hopes to build another pantry next month.
