Please don't limit items to this!

Tomato paste
Boxed au gratin or scalloped potatoes

Size 5 and 6 diapers (I am trying to find out if there are some of these at the Warwick Food Pantry that they can give them)
We will deliver donations weekly and keep a tally of the weight of donated items. Please help us collect 1000 pounds of food!
For more information, contact Mary at mjuliano@ststephenchurchwarwick.org.

food bank of the hudson valley
The Food Bank of the Hudson Valley works all year round to provide food for those in our community who are in need, no matter the reason for the need.
Lent is a wonderful time to truly perform works of mercy - a few hours in a day for us turns into a gift for others. If you wonder what the impact might be, look no further than this letter written to the Food Bank expressing gratitude.
Start this Lent, and you may find yourself wanting to make this a part of your mission throughout the year!

Volunteers Needed to Help with Food Distribution
with Catholic Charities - March 23
Volunteers are needed for both set up and distribution.
Some of the tasks involve carrying food boxes to tables, sorting, packing, bagging, setup and breakdown of folding tables, loading bags/boxes of food into client’s vehicles. Shifts last two hours, and volunteers can sign up for multiple shifts.
A short orientation at the beginning of each shift will be held to brief on the process and distribution of responsibilities.
