March
MUCC and Scouts Annual Food Drive
March 29th
This month Magnolia United Church of Christ will be collecting for the Ballard Food Bank in collaboration with the Scout Troops to collect food for our most vulnerable neighbors! Last year, the Ballard Food Bank distributed 4.5 million pounds of food. It serves over 10,000 households per month and packs kid-friendly bags of food for 630 students through their Weekend Food for Kids program and brings food to 470 families through their home delivery program. They do this all through generous donations from the community and through drives like this!
Here are the items that the Food Bank is asking for:
- Canned meat
- Canned tomatoes & pasta sauce
- Mac & cheese, Ramen
- Soups
- Pasta and rice
- Peanut butter and jelly
- Canned vegetables, fruit and beans
- Cereal and oats
- Diapers – size 4+ and toilet paper
- Basic hygiene items: travel-size shampoo/conditioner, bar soap, laundry pods, razors
- Dry dog & cat food
Please bring items to Magnolia United Church of Christ (3555 W. McGraw Street) by March 29th! Email contact@magnoliaucc.org to arrange for dropoff.
Thank you for collecting and donating essential food for this wonderful organization!
