Christmas Food Box
Our local schools have been flooded with requests for food assistance for the holidays. Our students and their families would be so grateful for our support. We have a goal to feed 10 local families over the break. We can use your support in a variety of ways. We will be filling boxes with a holiday meal and a few essentials to help our families feel seen and loved.
Donate any amount to our GiveButter account to help us purchase refrigerated items like ham, eggs, butter, milk and cheese. $5-$100 and anywhere in between will help so much. You can sponsor the box for a family for $50.
Would you rather shop? Please consider these specific requests so that we are able to provide each family with a similar box. We were blessed with many canned goods from a food drive at McAdory Middle School, so we have plenty of veggies, tuna, soup and mashed potatoes. Please consider donating the following items:
20 Canned chicken
20 Canned fruit
10 Grape or Strawberry Jelly
10 bags of Flour
10 bags of Sugar
10 boxes instant oatmeal
10 large boxes of cereal
If you can help, please use the link on the website to click the “I can help” button. This will allow us to know who can help with which items and help us schedule drop offs. We will update our list as neighbors commit to helping.
