Three community groups and the local IGA have teamed up to collect food for the HOPE (Helping Other People Effectively) Food Bank in the St. John Brebeuf Church, 7777 George Street in LaSalle.
This is the fifth year in a row that the event has taken place.
Volunteers with St. John Brebeuf, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the LaSalle Knights of Columbus will be going door to door this Saturday (September 12) to ask for non-perishable goods from 10 a.m. until noon.
Residents who won’t be home, but would like to contribute are asked to leave their cans and other foods in a paper bag on their porch prior to 10 a.m.
The group also welcomes additional volunteers and drivers. Anyone who has the time and inclination to participate is asked to arrive at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints building, 7110 Newman Blvd. in LaSalle by 9:00 a.m. on September 12th.
For further information, the group has a Facebook event page at https://www.facebook.com/events/1029744850372098/.
