While these families work hard, the high cost of living in our area and inflation makes providing for all the needs impossible. Your food donation, which may seem small, is a helping hand in their struggles. We are dangerously low on supplies of: Canned Soup, Vegetables, Beans (canned and bagged), Fruit, Tuna, Chicken, Chef Boyardee, Chili and Stew. Rice, Parmalat, Cereal, Oatmeal, Coffee, Tea, Pasta Sauce, Pasta, Peanut Butter, Jelly, Toothpaste, Toothbrush, Shampoo/Conditioner, Soap, & Deodorant.
