The financial strains of the pandemic have hit some families harder than others.
Local food pantries have been critical in filling the gap … putting food on the table when the family budget just won’t stretch far enough. But now those pantries need help.
On June 23rd and 24th … Gather-up your non-perishable food items and go to 13 ON YOUR SIDE for their Drive-Thru Dash!
It’s a two-day, drive-thru event to collect food for the Heart of West Michigan United Way’s Summer Stock Up.
The station is at 645 3 Mile Northwest, just east of Alpine Avenue.
Pantries need canned fruits, veggies and meats, pasta, cereal and peanut butter.
It’s a no-contact affair. You never have to get out of your car. Just put your items to donate in your trunk and pull into the station parking lot. Smiling volunteers will take your donations right from your trunk.
Help us fill a truck with food and feed our hungry neighbors!
And if you prefer a financial donation … text PANTRY to 50503.
