Food Drive to Benefit the Homeless

 Many women and children in our community live in poverty, and as a result, they struggle to afford necessities such as food and housing. As prices have risen on most everything, including food, it's been a challenge for them just to make it through another day.


From now until March 29th, the Fashion Safari will serve as a drop off location for a Food Drive to benefit the homeless. Frog Ministries in Edgewater, who serves so many homeless in our community, will distribute the donations.

Primary needs are peanut butter, jelly, cans of soup with meat, cans/pouches of seasoned chicken and tuna. Small portions are best as they often have to carry these items long distances on foot or bicycle. There are no kitchens or storage options for them, so non-perishable, ready-to-eat foods are their only option.

There will be a drop-off box located in the store. Any non-perishable food donation, no matter how large or small, is sincerely appreciated.
