This year, we are once again collecting gently-used (really!) and new clothing. Socks, underwear and kids’ pajamas must be new. All kinds of clothes are appreciated – work, school, casual, athletic, fancy, costumes, or anything else. Footwear, too!

We’re also collecting all kinds of non-perishable food to help stock our new, year-‘round food pantry. (Opening in February!) With the rising cost of groceries and high levels of food insecurity in our community, your support is needed now more than ever.

Like always, it will be a big, wonderful block party with tons of ways for people of all ages to help.
