About the event
World Food Day is a day set aside each year to consider food insecurity in our communities and to aid local food pantries in advance of the busy holiday season. This year is our tenth official year running a food day collection, and we are so proud to have collected TONS—no actually, we have collected more than two tons of food—for local organizations working to help our neighbors in need. Each year we set a collection goal, and for the 2024 drive, we are aiming for 1,000 items. We will have a box out for our collection starting on October 1st, culminating in a final push on 10/16! Please consider joining us that day!
