CHiPs Food Donations Tomorrow! (Date Correction - 4/19)
Tue, Apr 18 12:26pm

Hi Everyone, 

 

Sending out a friendly reminder about our weekly CHiPS food donation/collection on Wednesday, 4/19.  Families can bring donations Wednesday morning during drop-off at the Main Entrance and they will be driven to CHiPS immediately after (for early drop-off and Math Magic attendees, donations can be left in the main entrance way!). 
 
Any amount helps! 

The following items are urgently needed for daily breakfast and lunch served to over 400 people, as well as pantry items and to help supplement the meals they put out from their kitchen.

Please label all prepared items - we welcome anything that is nutritious and can be easily handed out, including:

 

  • Sandwiches - ALL Kinds (Ham/Cheese, Turkey/Cheese, Egg Salad, PBJ)
  • Sliced Bread Packages
  • Lunch Meatpackages
  • Eggs
  • Tortillas
  • Prepared Meals (pasta, rice/beans, soup, pasta salad etc) Please pre-package in individual portions.
  • Microwaveable Meals - Instant Ramen, Rice & Beans Packets

For anyone unable to make it this week, we’ll collect again next week! Also please consider online support at chipsonline.org/ donate, and you can find a list of specific needs for the CHiPS Soup Kitchen on this Amazon wish list.
