HOLIDAY FOOD ITEMS
*We are collecting items for our Thanksgiving and Holiday meals, which we will start distributing in late-October and continue through late-December! Needed shelf-stable items include: Stuffing Mix, Gravy, Canned Yams/Sweet Potatoes, Canned Green Beans & Corn, Apple Pie Filling.
What about CRANBERRY SAUCE and CANNED PUMPKIN?! We already have a healthy stock of Cranberry Sauce and Canned Pumpkin in our pantry. While we will happily accept those items, they are not in as great of a need as the other holiday food items mentioned above.
PLEASE NOTE:
- We are not in need of the following: Baby Food, Baby Formula
- We cannot accept expired or opened food items. Please check the expiration dates on items before donating them. Our food donation guidelines provide assistance in determining what can be accepted.
