Food Drive Underway At White Marsh Precinct

The White Marsh precinct needs help filling up the grocery cart in its lobby. The donation drive goes on through the end of November.

From Baltimore County Police Department:The White Marsh Precinct is sponsoring a food drive to benefit Freedom Church on Hazelwood Avenue and Garden Village Community Center and needs your help to fill up the grocery cart in the precinct lobby!

The grocery cart will be in the lobby at the 9th Precinct through the end of the month as they collect donated boxes, cans, jars and bags of food items to help stock the food pantry at Freedom Church and donate bags of goods to the Garden Village Community Center, which in turn disperses the bags to families in need in the Garden Village Community.
Please remember that donated items cannot be past or near expiration, as they will be used through the holidays. Items that make great donations include the following:

  • Canned vegetables or fruit
  • Fruit cups or applesauce cups
  • Peanut butter
  • Jelly/Jam
  • Pasta noodles
  • Pasta sauce
  • Raman noodles
  • Rice
  • Canned soup
  • Cereal
  • Bottled juice or juice boxes
  • Any instant microwaveable food packages (mac-n-cheese bowls, etc.)

Bring as little or as much as you can. Every little bit helps a family in need.
