Operation Hope Of Fairfield Hosts Food Drive July 30

FAIRFIELD, CT — Operation Hope of Fairfield is hosting a Food Drive from 10 a.m. to noon on July 30 at Sherman Town Green in Fairfield, according to organizers.

From the group's announcement:

Want to take a bite out of the summer slide? ?Summer slide? is the time when school is out and learning, in particular for low income kids, lags. It?s also a time when parents who rely on daily school breakfast and lunch during the school year find it even harder to put food on the table to feed their families.

Help us take a bite out of the ?summer slide? and support our summer food drive. Join us Saturday, July 30, 10am-12pm at Sherman Town Green. Help our neighbors in need by stocking Operation Hope's Food Pantry with the much-needed items listed below. If you can?t attend the food drive, please consider making a monetary donation here or purchasing items for our Food Pantry through our Amazon Wish List here. Thank you!
