Additional Info: The food bank is at the intersection of Penn Ave. and N. Trenton. Please keep an eye on the weather and be sure to dress appropriately! You may be outdoors for some of this event to load food into cars.

If you wish to further your impact, you can bring items to donate to the food bank but are by no means required to do so. Some items the food bank is most in need of are: low-sodium vegetables, soups, and beans, peanut butter, canned tuna and chicken in water, home supplies (paper towels, toilet paper, etc), and personal hygiene supplies (razors, soap, etc).
