The Big Steel Box Team will host a food drive Sept. 16 at the Superstore on 2280 Baron Rd., from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. Donate to this food drive and you will have a chance to win an inflatable boat.

“Our food bank has been well used this summer. We started with floods, then wildfire, then an apartment fire and then more wildfire,” says Sonia Withers, community ministry coordinator at the Salvation Army. “We need to have a good supply of food on hand at all times. This drive will fill up the shelves. Our most needed items are chunky food, peanut butter, cereal, crackers, tinned meat, rice, pasta and pasta sauce.”

“We so appreciate companies that offer to run a food drive for us,” says Patty Lou Bryant. “The Big Steel Box Team coordinates everything: the team, the bins, packing groceries at the tills and handing out the ‘most wanted’ lists. We are looking forward to the bounty the community will donate.”
