On Saturday, May 7, 2011, the Livingston County Association of Realtors will again have a food drive for Gleaners Community Food Bank. In 2010 we hit 39,000 meals collected! Our goal this year is 40,000 meals.
Drop off points include the Brighton Millpond and the Howell Gazebo, next to the Historic County Courthouse. In Brighton, you can pull up on Main Street and volunteers will be there to take your food item donations between 9am and 2pm.
Suggested items are canned meals, PB&J, macaroni & cheese, cereal, spaghetti and meat sauce, toiletries and laundry detergent. No products in glass containers, please.
You can also make monetary donations. With the food bank's buying power, $1 can actually provide 3 meals! It always makes ME feel better to donate food items, but money feeds more people.
Most local Real Estate offices will be collection points, and on the day of the food drive many local grocery stores will have volunteers stationed to take donations, too.
If you can't make it on the 7th, consider dropping off donations at my office at anytime before that date, or call me. I may be able to swing by between appointments and pick it up. Preview Properties and I will be happy to get the food to the drive for you.
