Murrieta girls set up take-what-you-need food table in neighborhood

Jeff Pack Staff Writer Krystal Hall, along with her 12-year-old daughter, Nyckole, and 12-year-old stepdaughter, Alyssa, were cleaning out their pantry at the start of the COVID-19 stay-at-home order to keep themselves busy.  That’s when they came up with an idea. “We were going through it and when we had everything organized, we realized we had more quantity of items then we needed,” Krystal said. “We thought, why not donate? But looking at how our grocery stores are looking right now and how difficult it is to find these items we had, the girls thought of putting a table out front of our home with the extra food and a sign that says ‘take what you need and leave what you don’t’ so people do not have to suffer. They have access to it if they really need it.”
