Cans and Coins Food Drive

We dunnit! We had a unanimous vote from the Board, proxies and the present community members showing full support for our food drive to be conducted next month. As I stated in the meeting, Miki Asejo and friends have served over 5,000 meals here at the community center over the last 2 years at no cost to the public, and now it is time to say thank you.

The Cans and Coins food drive collection center will be at the community center from August 1 through August 30. We will have a barrel to drop your coins into and a place for all of your food donations. Below is a partial list of what we need for our Aloha lunches.
