The annual Helping Hands Food Drive is back again!
Girl Scouts and volunteers will collect non-perishable food items on Saturday, October 24th to support local food banks. Fill a bag with non-perishable food items (no glass please) and place them on your doorstep by 9 a.m. on October 24th.
Girl Scouts will pick up your donations between 9 a.m. and noon to . If you miss the day of the drive you can bring your bagged donation to any Farm Fresh in Hampton Roads or RBC Banks in North Carolina throughout the month of October.
All donations will be sent to the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia, the Foodbank of the Virginia Peninsula, and the Foodbank of the Albemarle. With the sponsorship of Farm Fresh Supermarkets, WAVY-TV 10, The Virginian-Pilot, the Daily Press, Kellogg’s, and Dasani, the Girl Scout Council of Colonial Coast hopes to make this year’s drive the best yet.
The Girl Scout Council of Colonial Coast, a United Way agency, serves over 16,000 girls in grades K through 12, and 6,000 adult volunteers in southeastern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina.
