The last Sunday of the month is FOOD BANK SUNDAY. However, you can bring you donations in on any Sunday.
Overview: Food banks most need shelf stable, healthy, nonperishable items, especially high protein foods like peanut butter, canned tuna/chicken, and beans, plus staples like pasta, rice, oats, and canned fruits/vegetables (low sodium/no sugar added preferred), along with hygiene products like diapers and feminine hygiene. Focus on items that are easy to prepare and nutritious for all ages, avoiding glass containers or items past their sell-by date.
Key Needed Items for March: • Non-Perishables: Canned goods (soups, vegetables, fruit, tuna), pasta, peanut butter, and crackers. • Essential Items: Sugar, flour, cooking oil, spices, salt, and pepper. • Toiletries & Personal Care: Dish soap, laundry detergent, shampoo, and deodorant. • Hygiene Items: Feminine hygiene products, toilet paper, and wipes. • Specialty Items: Coffee, tea, and cake mix/frosting..
