Bring in HEAVY
Canned Food or $$$
for Helping Hands
Food Bank
We have two more weeks until our Club is crowned Community Stuff a Bus Champions! Of course, in order to win the crown, we need you to bring cannned food, non-perishables or $$$ to our Club meeting this Friday, Feb. 17 or next Friday, Feb. 24. The organization that brings in the most pounds in donations wins the crown. Every $1 = 25 pounds of food so either bring in really heavy food (think canned beans, vegetables, laundry soap, shampoo, etc.) or cash. The Community Champion receives lunch for 10 at Pacioni's in Mount Vernon. When we win all club members who donate food will be entered into a drawing for the lunch. The need for foodbank donations is especially important right now. Please consider making a donation. The food bank can also REALLY USE egg cartons and grocery bags of any type. Just bring them to any Friday meeting.
