FOOD DRIVE 2006 For Avon and Grant Townships
All Girl Scout troops are encouraged to do whatever they can to help feed the hungry in their community. In an effort to do just that, we are holding a FOOD DRIVE for Avon & Grant Townships on November 18th. We have done this a few times in the past with great success by having the Troops distribute paper grocery bags (usually donated by local grocers) to their neighbors a week before the pick-up date with a note describing the Food Drive and indicating said pick-up date when the Girl Scouts will retrieve the filled bags. (A Sample letter is available on the Registration/Flyer).
Keep in mind: when sorting through the donated items prior to dropping them off. If YOU would not serve the item(s) that you are donating to your family due to age or condition of the can, then please do not bring them to the food pantry!
Please note that there are two (2) drop-off locations on Saturday, November 18th;
AVON Township Center, 433 E. Washington Street, Round Lake Park, Illinois from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon
GRANT Township Center, Lower Level, 26725 W. Molidor Road, Ingleside, Illinois from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
