Lakeland Christian Academy will hold its Second Annual Community-wide Food Drive next week.
The food drive will benefit Combined Community Services. With the public's help, LCA hopes to "stock the shelves" at CCS.Wednesday, all LCA students will go out and leave grocery bags on door steps. Attached to the bag will be a flier with information about the food drive.
The students will return the next day, Sept. 24, between 1 and 3 p.m. to collect the bags filled with non-perishable food items. If residents will not be home, they may leave the bags outside their front door. If a person is missed, call 574-267-7265 and someone will come out for the donation.
After all the food is collected, it will be delivered to CCS Thursday afternoon.
Suggested non-perishable food items include peanut butter, jelly, cereal, soups, canned meat, macaroni and cheese, pancake mix, syrup, granola bars, canned vegetables and fruit, spaghetti sauce, all pastas, Spaghetti O's and other canned dinners. Diapers, size 4 and larger, also may be donated.
