Scouting for Food Drive – Final Update

An final update on the Scouting for Food Drive from Deb Pawelczyk:

On Saturday, November 2, 2024, from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon, Cub Scout Pack 299 and Boy Scout Troop 299 held their Scouting for Food Drive. We collected for the annual Scouting for Food Drive a total of 375 pieces of people food and pet food. We also collected $1,788.00 at the following locations: Walpole Post Office, Walpole Recycling Center, Tractor Supply and Shaw’s. Thank you to everyone who donated on this day.

This Saturday, November 9, 2024, from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon, we collected 650 non-perishable food items and pet food. We collected $2252.00 in monetary donations for the Fall Mountain Food Shelf. The food items have already been delivered to the Food Shelf. The monetary donations we will present to Mary Lou Huffling on Saturday, November 23rd, while we help make Thanksgiving boxes for those in need. The total for this drive came to 1025 pieces of people and pet food and $4040.00 in monetary donations. 

       Thank you to everyone who helped support this great drive.

    As a representative of the Fall Mountain Foodshelf, I would like to say how much this food drive is appreciated. Food drives give us the opportunity to add something different to the boxes of food we give out. The money collected will have a huge impact on our Thanksgiving boxes which will give each family a turkey and all the fixings. Thank you all.
