Please join us in our annual tradition of “giving back” as we head into the holiday season! ✨
OBIA is collecting supplies, canned food, and non-perishable food items to be donated to the Eastern Interfaith Outreach Food Pantry (located at 3 Bowleys Quarters Road). The director of the food pantry suggested including the following food items (in additional to the typical canned food items), as they are very popular with their patrons:
🔹boxed stuffing mix
🔹macaroni and cheese
🔹Ensure drinks
🔹beverages
🔹pancake mix and syrup
🔹peanut butter
🔹jelly
🔹canned meats (tuna, spam, chicken, beef)
In addition to food, you may also donate the following items:
🔹cleaning supplies
🔹dish detergent
🔹laundry detergent
🔹toiletries like toothpaste, soap, shampoo, etc.
The Eastern Interfaith Outreach Food Pantry works together with local churches to not only serve the homeless community, but they also help elderly patrons and families struggling to make ends meet, including several who are battling cancer and need assistance. We know the families in our community have such generous hearts and can help make a huge difference in the lives of others this holiday season.
If you prefer to make a monetary donation, please email us at [email protected] for instructions.
📍All donations may be placed inside of the trailer, located at the community property at the end of Chesapeake Road. The trailer is now in place and may begin receiving items!
Just a reminder to check expiration dates prior to placing the items in the trailer, and please let us know if you have any questions.
Be sure to spread the word to all the surrounding communities - together we can make a huge difference in the lives of others - especially this year more than ever! The last day to drop off donations will be Sunday, December 20.
Thank you for your generosity! ❤️
