FOOD DRIVE: June 9-23
Days of HOPE FOOD DRIVE!!
June 9-23
To benefit FULFILL of Monmouth & Ocean Counties
As you may or may not know, summers are a critical time for the food banks. Donations tend to taper off during the summer months but the struggle remains. Children, who are normally provided meals at school for free, no longer have this provision in the summer. Our hope is to help Fulfill stock its shelves in order to provide for these families in need. We hope you will support our “Days of HOPE” Food Drive.
If you have any questions, please touch base with Ginger Hatton or Jen Castelo at Grace. (jen@gracechristianchurch.com) …call office for further contact info.
Where: Collection box will be in the lobby. There will also be a container on the driveway side outside the youth room, for after hours drop-off.
What: Only non-perishable items can be donated and no glass items can be accepted. Flyers in the church lobby.
Suggested Items: Canned tuna/chicken/salmon, canned vegetables, canned fruit (in juice or light syrup), cooking oils, shelf-stable milk, pancake mix & syrup, peanut butter & jelly, soups, ready-to-eat canned meals, hot & cold cereals, fruit juice (100% juice)
$$$: If you prefer to donate with funds, we at Grace will be happy to pass on your generosity. Checks can be made out to Grace Christian Church with “food drive” in the memo section.
The more we collect, the more hungry mouths we are helping to feed. Feel free to take as many bags and pass them out to family, friends, and neighbors. Together we can make a difference.
Spread the Word…. and Thank you!
