Local fire departments will be collecting donations tomorrow, March 7, to support the South Grenville Food Bank.
Augusta Fire Rescue, Prescott Fire Department, and the Edwardsburgh Cardinal Firefighters Association will be at the Independent Grocer and Giant Tiger in Prescott from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., accepting monetary and non-perishable donations.
The effort is part of a collaboration with the Chief Fire Officer’s Association of Leeds and Grenville, and all donations will go directly to help local families. Community support is needed to make the drive a success.
Bonnie Cougler, manager of the South Grenville Food Bank, said demand continues to rise.
Although all donations are appreciated, Cougler noted a few items the food bank is currently in need of.
Cougler thanked everyone taking part and encouraged residents to bring extra non-perishable items to help support the community initiative.
