Donation Cans Are Getting Filled for the food drive

This past weekend the eastside’s “Month of Concern for the Hungry” had a great start with many people manning the entrances to supermarkets all over the eastside.  These barrels were getting filled at the downtown Kirkland QFC store.

This is only the beginning of the food drive, which will take place for the next month with the goal of raising 200,000 lbs. of food. It’s a lot of food, but the need is great.  Please give throughout the month.  Remember, every time you go to the grocery store in the next month, pick up one extra item to donate.  It will make a big difference.  Fire stations, City Hall, and Evergreen Hospital will all accept donations.
