London Cares Curb Hunger Food Drive: Update
The London Cares Curb Hunger Food Drive needs your help. We did have our best day (Thursday) with 10,700 pounds coming in from curbside, several grocery stores and being dropped off directly at the Food Bank.
On average 3,300 families per month visited the London Food Bank in 2015. We need your help filling the shelves for the upcoming summer months!
The London Cares Curb Hunger Food Drive makes it easy for Londoners to donate!
While buying your groceries on Friday and Saturday, please consider donating non-perishable food items to the London Food Bank donation boxes at the 27 participating grocery stores.
Ideas for donations:
- Canned food
- Rice
- Cereal
- Powdered milk
- Baby food
- Pastas
- Toiletries
Tomorrow we’ll be collecting curbside in Zone B – if you live in the neighbourhoods of Cherryhill, Masonville, Stoneybrook Acres, Whitehills and Sherwood Forest. Please place non-perishable food donations in a bag beside your Blue Box.
