SAVE THE DATE: Food Donation Drop Off
May 24th, 2022 6:30 PM
The Old Armory ~ 500 S. Johnson Street, Monroe NC
Good evening,
At the April youth council meeting, it was decided that the council would sponsor a food donation drive to support the Union County Community Shelter. In order to make this service project a success, we need the help and assistance of all youth council members, parents, school partners, and NAACP adult branch members. Please consider donating and sharing this information with your networks.
We would like to sort and pack all of the donations at our May 24th council meeting. The meeting will be at 6:30pm, in person, at the Armory. Virtual or hybrid will not be an option for this meeting. We are hoping to have all active members join us for not only packing the donated items, but for a Pizza Party to say thank you. (Be on the look out for a sign up if you are able to attend in person so we can plan appropriately.)
Attached to this email is a flyer that we hope you will use to help with collections and donations. You can post it on social media, email, distribute – use however you wish in order to spread the word and encourage support of this event.
Items Needed for Food Pantry:
- Peanut Butter
- Jelly
- Instant Mashed Potatoes
- Canned Goods (Pasta, Tuna, Soup)
- Individual/Snack size bags of chips
Items Needed for Homeless Cart Kits: (We will assemble the kits as a group at the meeting,)
- Individual bars of soap
- Toothpaste
- Toothbrushes
- Men/Women Deodorant
If you have any questions or other needs in order to support this project, please respond to this email. One of the youth advisors will be in touch with you as soon as possible. Thank you for supporting our youth as they work to make an impact and a difference within the community!
