2024 Holiday Food Drive!

We’ll be collecting non-perishable food donations at our November and December meetings to support the Center of Hope and Kent Social Services food pantries. Both programs serve hundreds of families in need on a daily basis so we’re honored to be able to help support their work in our county!

Bring in canned or non-perishable food donations to either luncheon and receive a chance to win a gift card! Attendees will receive 1 drawing ticket per item donated.

DID YOU KNOW?

  • The Center of Hope has served over 108,000 hot meals and distributed over 22,000 bags of groceries!  They serve the communities of Ravenna, Ravenna Township, Charlestown, Wayland, Edinburgh, North Benton, Palmyra, Eastern Palmyra, Diamond, Paris Township, Deerfield, Newton Falls, and Rootstown.
  • Kent Social Services “serves over 20,000 hot meals a year and provides over 100,000 pounds of groceries to households in need.”

2019 Holiday Food Drive A Big Success!

The PCSC once again an annual holiday food drive at its November & December monthly meetings!

November attendees who donated one or more non-perishable food items to the Center of Hope received a drawing ticket for a Subway restaurant gift card. December attendees who donated one or more non-perishable food items to Kent Social Services received a free copy of the book Bridges Out of Poverty! As you can see below, the books were a big hit!

Each month generated a full card load of groceries to help those in need!

Thank you to everyone who gave!
