It is that time of year again when we participate in the MLK Community Day of Service and host a food drive for our community. As costs of practically everything have risen this year, food insecurity remains a serious concern impacting the health of our community. We would greatly appreciate any donations of nonperishable items you can contribute.

I would also appreciate your support in reaching out to other neighbors and friends who might be willing to contribute.

Please see attached letter with a list of recommended items. I am still waiting to hear which Food Pantry these items will be delivered to... but will share when I know more.

I am happy to pick them up from you or feel free to drop bags off on my front porch (30 Lancaster Street) between now and the end of the day on Monday, January 16th.

We all can make a difference. Thank you in advance!

Best wishes for a Happy and Healthy New Year!
Jackie
