Top Ten Food Bank Needs
The
top ten items for us would be:
Mayonnaise, kid pasta in a can, cookies and crackers,
condiments (especially ketchup, barbecue sauce, relish - we have a lot of
mustard), salad dressing, cereal, coffee and tea (including iced tea mix),
shampoo, tooth paste and of course always TP

Urgent Request From Food Bank
The Food Bank is in desperate need of items again.
Please see a partial list below and tips on how you can keep the food bank
in mind while doing your shopping.
The food bank has to spend money buying items such as
margarine, cream cheese, hot dogs (now that it's summer), fresh fruit -
apples, bananas (cheapest as Sam's), onions, potatoes, carrots, so these are
items they could also use. Clip coupons and look for anything BOGO (such as
eggs).
