Summer is demanding for Foothills Food Bank

Bookmark and Share

NORTH VALLEY – Although the winter residents are gone, families in our area seeking help from the Foothills Food Bank are still here and in great number. Constant community efforts are underway to bring in donations of food and monies to help sustain the food bank in these demanding times. All individuals and groups are encouraged to help in this effort.

You may bring donated items and food (check the June Wish List to find the most needed items) directly to the Foothills Food Bank during business hours at 6038 E. Hidden Valley Drive, Cave Creek, AZ 85331.

An older model used van, preferably in good working order, is needed to facilitate timely pick-ups from those who donate regularly, especially perishables. Donation of a vehicle is tax deductible and the name of the donor will appear permanently on the van. Contact Pam DiPietro directly if you are able to help with a vehicle donation by calling 480-488-1145.

Please consider making special summer donations to help sustain the food bank. Monetary donations are always welcome; they will do the shopping to fill their pantry shelves. Send your check, payable to Foothills Food Bank, to Foothills Food Bank, P.O. Box 715, Carefree, AZ 85377 or click on Donate at the top of the page at www.foothillsfoodbank.com (your donations may be tax deductible).
