Each November our parishes collect food for our local pantries to help restock their inventory. This time of year can be especially difficult for the food pantries to keep their shelves full because of the great need in our communities.
In addition to our month-long collection the Knights of Columbus will be hosting a drive-thru food drive. We held a similar event in the spring for those struggling to make ends meet during the pandemic layoffs. This drive was met with great enthusiasm and was a great success.
The upcoming drive-thru food drive will be held Friday, November 20th 4-6pm and Saturday November 21st 10am-Noon. You can come to any of the locations below and volunteers will be present to coordinate and help with the drop off. Along with food, cash donations are accepted in order to purchase gift cards.
