ROTARY FOOD DRIVE Sept. 14, 2024
The Rotary Club of Essex will be holding a food drive at the Price Chopper in Essex on Center Rd. September 14th from 9am to 2pm. Donated food will be collected to benefit the Heavenly Food Pantry in Essex Jct. The Heavenly Food Pantry serves approximately 100 families per month in the Essex Community and their shelves are nearly empty all while the need continues to grow. It is an essential food program to help feed our hungry neighbors.
Please go to PC on Saturday, September 14th and help Rotary collect non-perishable food items. Rotary Club members will be present to assist donors with info about the specific needs for Heavenly Food Pantry. Also, food items can be brought to Kaitlyn Raymond Insurance Agency at 29 Upper Main St., Essex Jct. and Community Bank at 54 Pearl St., Essex Jct. all week leading up to the food drive. The Rotary Club of Essex and The Heavenly Food Pantry thank you for your generosity.
Many thanks to Matt Lumsden Real Estate who is lending their box van to transport the collected items to Heavenly Food Pantry. Also, a huge thank you to Price Chopper for allowing us to occupy the front of their store.
