Food Drive

Our partners at Hollywood Food Coalition are getting ready for an increased need for their services.  hat's why they have put out a call for non-perishable items at the following time and location:

Date: Tuesday, November 4th
Time: 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM
Location: 1223 Vine Street, Hollywood

Below is the list of recommended Items (e.g., proteins, hearty soups, whole grains) to help you choose the most needed goods.  As always, you don't need to get them all.  

Note: 
-Please make sure items are not expired
-Cans should be 32 ounces or less
-These items should be individual servings
-It’s best for the canned goods to have pop-tops

ALSO FYI --- HoFoCo has put out an URGENT request for volunteers. They really need help with sorting and organizing the canned goods before they are distributed.  If you are available to lend a hand, please join them for the sorting shift:  1pm - 3pm Tuesday, Nov 4.  To volunteer, email erin.lovelace@hofoco.org so they can get a headcount. 

Another FYI from HoFoCo --  The Sunday Lunch Bag Project is receiving an influx of loose sandwiches from local community groups, nonprofits, and businesses. They appreciate this extra volume, however, the additional sandwiches mean there is a need for items to go into the lunch bags to accompany these sandwiches. Donations of salty snacks (chips), granola/power bars, something sweet (Yes, we will take your leftover Halloween candy!), and applesauce pouches are highly appreciated. No need to bag these items - HOFOCO does this on site with volunteers every Sunday. If you do create snack bags, please label them PBJ as this is the most popular sandwich flavor coming our way. Dates we particularly need snack drop-offs: Nov 2, Nov 9, Nov 16 and Nov 23.
