Give The Gift of Food
As we go about our holiday shopping, all too often we forget that there are people right here where we live that don’t have enough food to eat, let alone buy a bunch of presents. This year has been very tough financially for many families. While you are out shopping for your weekly groceries, remember those in need. Grab a few items to donate to your local food pantry. Many grocery stores have a large barrel at the entrance for you to drop your donation. The items you donate don’t necessarily need to be food, either. Many food pantries are in need of toiletries and paper products, as well.
In Menomonee Falls, the Community Chamber Office is collecting food during the annual Christmas Parade on Sunday, November 29th, at 4:30 pm.
They will have people walking along the parade route collecting food items. The Greater Menomonee Falls Foundation has provided a Challenge Grant for this Food Drive. They will donate $1 to the food pantry for every 1 food item donated by the Chamber up to $1,000!
So let’s get out there and help a neighbor in need! Need more ideas on ways you can help? Contact The Kuchta’s - Kelly & Colleen at 262-894-6512 or drop us an email at ckuchta@shorewest.com
