We Always Need Donations of Food:
Yes, we need donations of food in any amount. What foods help most? Well, nice as it may be, a jar of caviar doesn’t go very far for a hungry family. The following are suggestions of what foods go the furthest and help the most, however, we won't turn down any gift.

Staples:
Excellent choices are staples like dry beans, rice, pasta, lentils, split peas and oatmeal. Non-sugared breakfast cereals also make a great contribution.

CHEESE! This is a good thing!
|
   |
Boxed meals like Rice-a-Roni and
Macaroni and Cheese are helpeful. |
 |
We would love to be able to distribute more healthy and nutritious fresh fruits, vegetables and meats, however, being highly perishable, unless donated on Wednesday, the day of distribution, they are difficult for us to handle. |
 |
Low on our list are "junk foods": candy, high sugar juice drinks, high sugar breakfast cereal, lunch-ables, and things with a high sugar or high fructose corn syrup content, however, we won't say no to anything. |
|
|
|
And of course, as stated before, we won’t turn away any donation,
some items however help more than others. And no amount is to small.
