URGENT! FOOD BANK NEEDS DONATIONS!

Now more than ever, the FOOD BANK needs your donations of non-perishable foods, (watch those expiration dates and no glass containers, please!) toiletries, baby supplies, pet food,etc.
Because of the economic downturn and many job losses, recently the FOOD BANK has seen a rise in need of 20%-40%.
Please give as much as you can either directly to the FOOD BANK or through the many drives sponsored by workplaces, houses of worship. community groups, scouting troops, postal service, grocery stores and supermarkets, etc.
If you have enough food, you are blessed ! Please pass on that blessing to others in need!
