Saturday 2/27 Windsor Residents Host Drive-Up Food Collection

This has been a difficult winter for many Windsor residents because of COVID and a snowy, cold season. That is why a group of Windsor residents is inviting the public to support a non-contact, safe “Live. Love. Give. Drive-Up Food Collection” to benefit the Windsor Food & Fuel Bank.

This Saturday, February 27th between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., anyone can drive their vehicle up to the curb of a house at 12 Pierce Lane (right off Marshall Phelps Rd.) in Windsor, stay inside their car or truck, and volunteers will safely remove donations of nonperishable food from the back seat or trunk. Items needed at this time include canned chicken; baked goods, coffee/tea, canned pasta, soups and stews, baked beans, condiments, crackers, cereal, peanut butter & jelly, canned fruits and vegetables, as well as diapers and personal hygiene products. This drive-up collection event will take place rain or shine.

This grassroots non-contact collection effort has been organized by local Berkshire Hathaway realtor Sharon Dillon Rispoli and a group of her friends. “Windsor is so fortunate to have a local food and fuel bank that supports residents who need a little help, and this is a safe, easy way that anyone can drive up, donate food, and feel good about supporting our community,” explains Ms. Dillon Rispoli. “Every food item will help our neighbors, and we encourage people to tell their friends to come drive up too.”
