The leaves are just beginning to change color, but the Interfaith Food Pantry is already hard at work planning their distribution of Thanksgiving gift baskets including turkeys and all the sides.
For the fifth consecutive year, we will be having our Bring a Turkey to Church Food Drive culminating on October 26th. Once again, we will be collecting turkeys, large chickens, turkey breasts and hams as well as side dishes. Download the flyer with the shopping list and start bringing your donations in anytime – we have plenty of freezer space!
Why not share the flyers with co-workers, neighbors, book clubs or any other group you are involved in, giving others the opportunity to participate. People want to help; we just have to make it easy for them.
Last year, the Pantry distributed 2,547 turkeys, sides and fresh produce to those who requested them, including 918 households served by Pantry Partners and other agencies. Needless to say, the need has only grown.
There is enough food to feed everyone. We just need the will to make it happen.
