“All of us, at some time or other, need help. Whether we’re giving or receiving help, each one of us has something valuable to bring to this world. That’s one of the things that connects us as neighbors — in our own way, each one of us is a giver and a receiver." – Mr. Rogers
This October and November, we’re “stepping out of the past” to address a current need in our community: food insecurity. Please join us for our 2nd Annual Food Drive to benefit the Chester County Food Bank and Animal House Project as we help our neighbors and their pets in need!
From October 24 through November 21, we will be accepting donations in our main lobby during regular business hours (Wednesdays – Saturdays, 10 AM – 4 PM). Whether it’s a can or two from your pantry or a bag of non-perishable groceries, any donation is sincerely appreciated!
Last year, we were amazed by the response from our community. Because of you and your generosity, we were able to gather and donate 681 lbs. of food and pet goods to these charities! We are still in awe! Let’s keep it going!
WHAT TO DONATE (all items must be new and unopened):
Nutritious non-perishables like canned/pouch chicken or tuna, pasta, canned ready-to-eat meals (like beef ravioli or chili), breakfast bars, cereal, pasta sauce, canned soup or stews, fruit (in juice) canned and individual cups, healthy snacks like popcorn, crackers, peanut butter, etc.
Non-food items can also be donated, such as personal hygiene items (e.g., deodorant/toothpaste), feminine hygiene products (e.g., tampons/pads), diapers, toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, paper plates/cups, can openers, etc.
Pet food, treats, new toys, and new beds are also being collected to benefit the Animal House Project.
No glass or expired items, please! Again, all items must be new and unopened.
THANK YOU for joining us in giving back to our community.
