Food Drive Update
The Wellness Coordinator is getting buried in FOOD!
So far we have collected a total of 276 pounds of food, toiletries and paper products for local food pantries. We only have 8 more days to beat our last year’s total of 550 pounds. WE CAN DO IT!
If you plan on grocery shopping over the next week, check out the item(s) assignment for your department and pick up a few things for the food drive. Departments were given a particular item to donate to help meet the highest needs of the food pantries but ANY donation will be accepted! Bring in items by March 31st.
2017 FOOD DRIVE DEPT ASSIGNMENTS
Reminder: please check expiration dates. The food pantries cannot accept any expired items.
