Review for WayForward Resources (formerly Middleton Outreach Ministry), Middleton, WI, USA

Rating: 1 stars  

WARNING!!!!
TO ALL INCOMING VISITORS,
You will have to wait in line until it opens. Meaning, if You show up 3-4 hours prior. You can no longer hold your spot in line. (like using a chair or what have you) You will have to wait outside in line until it opens. (the time of post this review, the temperature is 35 degrees or maybe colder) Risking your health for food.
The day I visited it was 35 degrees, my mom and I woke up at 4:30 am to arrive at wayforward location in Middleton at 5am where the pantry opens at 10 am just so we could have a good spot in line (5 Hour wait). We place our chairs in line just like everyone else, just like every other time. While waiting inside my car, just to find out at 8am that our chairs were taken inside the building. I was confused because the same people that were ahead of us were sitting in their chairs, directing that the staff taken our chairs inside the building and that we would have to go all the way to the end of the line, which at that point, people were laughing at us and there were around 30 - 40 people in line, even after waiting 3-4 hours already.
The reason I'm posting this review is that. Even if we were to go back to the end of the line, which is cruel and unusual, it's 35 degrees outside! It's very cold, to be waiting in line for hours. My mom has health conditions which is why I take care of her. So, to be outside that long in the cold. I don't think that's humane and I feel as though people are risking their health for food, (a monitory gain) the same people who are impoverished and struggling to make ends meet. Who really benefits from this new policy? Not good. The loss of morality
