Delco Holding Annual Thanksgiving Food Drive

This fall, Delaware County hopes you’ll consider giving back.

The county will collect items for its annual Thanksgiving Food Drive through Nov. 21.

The Food Drive is being presented by the Delaware County Council, the Department of Human Services, the Department of Intercommunity Health and Magellan Behavioral Health of PA.

According to the county, the most-needed items are

• canned meats (tuna, chicken, chicken and dumplings, corned beef hash);
• boxed or canned side dishes (rice or potatoes);
• unsweetened cereal;
• canned vegetables (tomatoes, beans, or corn);
• canned fruits;
• and soups, especially main dish soups with meat.

“Thank you for thinking of those less fortunate people who rely on food centers to help feed their families,” the county said.

The food drive benefits the DelCo Inter-Faith Food Assistance Network of Family and Community Service.
