CHiPS FOOD DRIVE - Extra Supply Request for tomorrow
Thu, Jan 23 8:33am

CHiPS is a soup kitchen/food pantry located on 4th Avenue.  Over 600 people are served daily.  Please bring donations Wednesdays during morning drop-off near the Main Entrance. 

Our 5th graders will be doing service days on Mon 1/27, 2/3 and 2/10 making turkey & cheese sandwiches for CHiPS - can you help too?!  We request extra supplies to support their efforts: sandwich bread, mayo, and deli mustard.  Cheese slices and turkey slices appreciated too if expiration date works.  Alternately jelly, peanut butter (Jif or Skippy type PB easier for kids to spread), and ziploc sandwich bags.  We are targeting donating 375 sandwiches across these three days so we appreciate your support!  Thank you for supporting our neighbors!
