I wanted to do a food drive at the Arboretum because around this time of year, many families in our area are unable to experience the joy of holidays. My hope is that our community will band together to participate in the food drive and make this season better for everyone!

Please donate canned goods or other packaged products to help local families. Thank you!!

Student Food Drive

In giving thanks for all we have we’re collecting food for the Coventry Food Pantry. You can drop off your donations at the house anytime. If we’re not there leave them on the porch between now and December 22nd. 

They are in need of jelly, peanut butter, tuna, canned meats, canned fruit, cereal, oatmeal, pasta, pasta sauce, rice and side dishes, cleaning supplies, paper products, soap, toothpaste, and laundry detergent.

For their weekend backpack program, they can use healthy 100% juice boxes, small fruit cups, individual puddings, raisins or dried fruit, granola bars, fruit snacks, crackers (peanut butter or cheese) packets
