Halfway through 2021, the efforts of the Springboro Pastors Association are bearing fruit - canned fruit, that is, along with MANY other items.
The Association pledged to hold a food drive every month during the year to collect needed items for the SCAC inventory. Drives have been held at St. Francis Episcopal Church, Southwest Church, Springboro United Church of Christ, Fairhaven Church, First United Methodist and Covenant Presbyterian.
The July food drive will be hosted by Christ Church - South Campus on July 10 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. The church is located at 10227 State Route 48, Centerville.
Christ Church is also collected school supplies every Sunday from July 4 through Aug. 1. Their goal is to stuff 450 backpacks with supplies ranging from pens and pencils to scientific calculators. One hundred of the backpacks will be donated to SCAC.
