“Share an Easter Meal and Pack the Pantry” at Open Door Mission

Open Door Mission has announced its annual “Share an Easter Meal and Pack the Pantry” event, scheduled March 19-30. There are three simple and important ways you can join in the effort to make this Easter season a truly happy one for thousands of hungry and homeless men, women, and children:

1. Send a Gift! Just $2.15 provides one hot, nutritious meal. Contribute online at www.opendoormission.org.

2. Fill a Bag! Fill a grocery bag with any of the following items and take it to Family Fare, Fareway, or SuperSaver locations. These items will be used to inspire HOPE for lasting change. URGENT FOOD NEEDS: Boxed meals, boxed potatoes, canned meat, cereals, macaroni & cheese, pasta, pasta sauce, peanut butter, and snacks.

3. Pack the Pantry! At Family Fare locations only, purchase a bag of Our Family Brand products for $20 to help pack the pantry! These food items will be used to feed the hungry.
