Second Sunday Food Sharing takes place the Second Sunday of each month. Our donations are taken to Crossroads East on Moross, just east of I-94. This location is close to our church home and has a food pantry, clothing closet, provides job assistance, and counseling. We will be collecting non-perishables such as cereal, noodles, rice, canned fruits, veggies, soups, and sauces. If you prefer to donate monetarily, your money is used to buy items such as eggs, milk, meat, produce, and bread. Our donations are greatly appreciated and really help keep the shelves, fridge, and freezer stocked. Please consider putting a couple extra cans or boxes of food in your cart next time you're out shopping. Toiletries, such as deodorant and toothpaste are also helpful. Thank you!
