With winter and holidays approaching it is a time for thinking about sharing. The Foothills Food Bank and Resource Center could use help with this “sharing” idea. Traditionally, the food bank tries to give a little “extra” to our clients so as to make the times more pleasant. We will try to provide turkeys and fixin’s, toiletries, and gifts for the children. Our Hispanic neighbors do not always use stuffing, sweet potatoes and cranberry sauce with their holiday meal, they prefer rice, corn, tortillas, tomatoes, and perhaps salsa with their turkey.
We welcome one and all that would like to help with this endeavor. For further information on how, when, and where to donate please call the Food Bank at 480-488-1145.
