Annual DuPont Presbyterian Church Summer Food Drive
DuPont Presbyterian Church will kick off its 2007 Annual Food Drive to
benefit the FISH Food Bank July 14-21. On Saturday, July 14th,
volunteers from the church, local Boy Scout Troop #472 and the Pioneer
Girls will drop off empty donation bags to homes in DuPont.
Residents are asked to fill the bags with non-perishable food items and
leave them on their porch by 9:00am the following Saturday, July
21st for pick up. Filled donation bags may also be left on the
church’s front porch at 502 Barksdale Ave. during the week of the Food
Drive.
Donation bags will have flyers attached with reminder dates and
information.
Last year’s Food Drive resulted in almost 600 lbs of food donated by
DuPont residents. For more information contact: Jake Smith, 253-964-2446
or Kay Michner, 253-964-2530.
FISH is made up of 8 organizational food banks and 5 affiliates
throughout Pierce County. In 2006 they served over 276,000 Pierce County
residents.
