FEEDING OUR NEIGHBORS

An Archdiocesan Wide Drive to Replenish Dwindling Food Pantries
January 24 - January 31, 2016

Feeding Our Neighbors is a united effort to fight hunger. This campaign is a response to Timothy Cardinal Dolan's call that we all do our part to replenish the food pantries and soup kitchens in our community, which so many families in our community rely on to survive. Sponsored by Catholic organizations throughout the Archdiocese of New York and managed by Catholic Charities, 100% of contributions to the campaign will support local food pantries that serve New Yorkers, non-Catholics and Catholics alike.

Organizational participants in Feeding Our Neighbors include all Archdiocesan Catholic schools, local parishes, the Catholic Youth Organization (CYO), the Archdiocesan Office of Religious Education, and the Catholic Charities Federation. There are three simple ways to participate and contribute to the Campaign:

FOOD COLLECTION BOXES ARE IN THE REAR OF THE CHURCHES.

Our parish will be collecting food to help our local food cupboards. Food items needed are:

PASTA, PASTA SAUCE, TUNA, PEANUT BUTTER & JELLY, CEREAL, POWERED MILK, JUICE, MACARONI & CHEESE, CANNED VEGGIES, FRUIT & STEWS, RICE, BEANS, OATMEAL PACKETS, STUFFING MIX, GRANOLA BARS, PANCAKE MIX, SYRUP, BISCUIT MIX, BOXED MASHED POTATOES.

Food donations can be dropped off in the back of the churches in the Feeding Our Neighbor’s Food Boxes.
