WHAT THE SHEPHERD'S STAFF COLLECTS: The winter months will soon be upon us. We find that hunger does not have a season. We collect other things besides warm clothing. We are always looking for clothes for children and adults in all sizes. We also need hygiene items; as well as, paper products, detergent and diapers. FOOD ITEMS NEEDED: Canned fruits, stew, mac & cheese, tuna, canned veggies, Spam, corned beef hash, beans, pancake mix & syrup, pasta, rice, dried milk, hamburger helper, chunkie soups, vienna sausages, fruit drinks and sugar. We always need all the things that you would need to feed your family on a weekly basis. We also encourage store gift cards, so that we can purchase, eggs, meat, and produce. When I myself shop, I try to pick up just a little extra for those in need. If you are a couponer, you can often find things buy one- get one free. We, also go through our own cupboards to check expiration dates. Most foods are still good even after the date has passed. HOW TO GET THINGS TO US: We do collect at 1st Assem. on Essington Rd. Or you can call Jerry & Lynne Elwood for pick up. |
