This year's drive is supporting the Good in the 'Hood food shelf at Crosstown by adding cleaning items to the distribution. We have identified six items of need:

Toilet Cleaner | Laundry Detergent | Paper Towels

Dish Soap | Hand Sanitizer | All Purpose Spray

It helps with distribution to have "uniform" products. We will have samples of products displayed at church. Please purchase products that are similar in brand and size to those displayed at church. You can make a purchase off our Amazon Wish List or shop on your own. The food shelf serves 35-50 families, so this is our initial target collection amount. Questions? Contact the Community Caring Commission.

Financial gifts marked for "Lent Giving Drive" or "Food Shelf" will be used to purchase missing products and excess donated to Good in the 'Hood.
