- WHEN: Food collection will run between Oct.1 and Oct. 16
- WHAT: Non-perishable food and personal care items such as: red sauce, cans of fruit, rice, powdered milk, soup, cereal, salad dressings, peanut butter, mac and cheese, soap, shampoo, toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, etc.
- WHERE: Donations can be dropped off at...
- OLV Basilica - Collection barrels will be placed at all four entrances
- St. Anthony's
