🥫💙 Adopt-A-Shelf Spotlight! 💙🥫

Our friends at United Church of Christ Southbury know how to stock a shelf—and then some!

Through our Adopt-A-Shelf program, UCC keeps our beef soup shelf stocked and ready for our neighbors in need. UCC parishioner and Southbury Food Bank volunteer Donna Ryan recently delivered another generous supply to the food bank. 🛒

Consistent donations like these make such a difference, helping us maintain inventory of essential items week after week.

A huge THANK YOU to Donna and the entire UCC community for your continued generosity and commitment to the Southbury Food Bank! 💙

🦃🧡 Looking for a way to help this Thanksgiving? Donate a turkey! 🧡🦃

Attention Southbury ShopRite shoppers! 🛒

If you qualify for a FREE holiday turkey through ShopRite’s promotional program and don’t plan to use it, consider donating it to the Southbury Food Bank!

Your donated turkey will be used in our Thanksgiving Baskets for larger families, helping make sure our neighbors can gather around the table and enjoy a special holiday meal. ❤️

🦃 How to donate: Simply visit Customer Service at Southbury ShopRite and let them know you’d like to donate your promotional turkey to the Southbury Food Bank.

Please do not bring the turkey directly to the Food Bank. ShopRite will hold donated turkeys in their freezer for us since we do not have enough freezer space on-site.

It costs you nothing extra but can make a BIG difference for a local family this Thanksgiving!

📣 Spread the word and share this post with your fellow Southbury ShopRite shoppers!
