Delco Girl Scouts Hosting Food Drive Saturday

DREXEL HILL, PA — A Delaware County Girl Scout troop is hosting a food drive this weekend.

Girl Scout Troop #566 will be collecting food Saturday as part of the Hunger Service Project.

The drive will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Those looking to donate items should drive up to the parking lot at St. Bernadette School, at the corner of Bond and Harper Avenues in Drexel Hill.

Girl Scouts will remove and sort donated items for a contactless drop off.

Patch has partnered with Feeding America to help raise awareness on behalf of the millions of Americans facing hunger. Feeding America, which supports 200 food banks across the country, estimates that in 2021, about 42 million Americans may not have enough nutritious food to eat due to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic. This is a Patch social good project; Feeding America receives 100 percent of donations. Find out how you can donate in your community or find a food pantry near you.
