Scott McIntyre/Staff Barbara Arkes, left, chats with fellow volunteers during the Lunch Boxes of Love food pantry distribution at Avalon Elementary school on Thursday. The program, funded by The Naples Children & Education Foundation, operates the pantry directly from the school. The initial in-school pantry was at Mike Davis Elementary, and due to its success, all others will be modeled after that one. The school pantries are being equipped with shelves from which families can choose the foods they like.
