February Food for the Forgotten

It is real easy to get through the holidays and think because we may have donated food and supplies to those less fortunate, that they are good for the next year.  Sadly, the proportionate amount of food versus people in need is definitely taking it's toll in this tough economy.  It is February and already the food banks are low - and I am asking you to help.  Our project for the month of February is to give "Food for the Forgotten".  I have provided you with the list below of what foods are needed most, but will certainly take any food you feel like giving.  Bags can be dropped off at my home or we can make arrangements for pickup.  Although food can be given year round, the deadline for our monthly project is February 29th!  I will be taking over all food collected and delivering it to the MUST pantry in Marietta.  Anyone wishing to help deliver, please let me know.  Please share our blog with your friends and families and let's make this a huge success!

Here is the list:
  • Canned Meats (tuna, salmon, etc.)
  • Jelly
  • All Breakfast Foods (cereal, pancake mix, powdered milk, grits, oatmeal, etc.
  • Boxed Meals
  • Canned Meals (spaghetti-os, ravioli, etc.)
  • Rice, Pasta
  • Spaghetti Sauces
  • Disposable razors
  • Deodorants
  • Canned Fruits
Thanks again for all you do.  Upcoming news:  Starting in March we will be doing our annual Easter Baskets for Love for the MUST ministries and for North Fulton County Foster kids.  More information to follow.
