The VFW Post 4099 and Auxiliary will be conducting a food drive for the Richland County Food Bank.
The food drive will be from Veterans Day through the Sidney Area Community Christmas Concert from Monday, Nov. 7 through, Saturday, Dec. 3. Items may be dropped off at the VFW Club, 124 2nd Ave. NE, Sidney. Food or money can also be brought to the Community Christmas Concert Sunday, Dec. 4 at the Sidney Middle School. The food bank reports that they welcome all donations, but specifically could use tomato soup, ramen, small jars of mayonnaise, and chili with beans. Monetary donations are always welcome so that the food bank can purchase fresh foods and other items they need.
The goal is to collect a combination of $1,500 and/or 1,500 pounds of food, and with that we will apply for an additional $1,500 through a matching grant from the VFW Foundation.
If you have any questions, contact VFW Auxiliary President Tim Tharp at 406-788-3168 or [email protected].
