Food Barrel - BRING SOME FOOD!

ATTENTION 

Can you please check your pantries, and see if you have food you know you SHOULDN'T eat, or food you can "spare" for our food barrel at the gym.
Any little bit helps, even if you pick up a bag of rice or pasta the next time you are at the store - it would be so appreciated.

Here is a list of some of the most common things that we would love to be able to share with our needy families in the Reno/Sparks community.

Access to nutritious food is vital for our neighbors who face hunger, and we ask that those donating food choose the most nutritious items available whenever possible. Please post this list to help your food donors determine what foods to donate.
