This program provides local children with the opportunity to "shop" for presents for a parent. This is the ninth year for this event with last year's program serving 250 children. Shriver Job Corps culinary and other students will provide a family breakfast for pantry guests. Santa has been known to make an appearance too!

Your help is needed. In addition to cash donations, we are looking for new gifts. The following are some gift suggestions. We ask that you keep the value between $10 and $15. We also need holiday
gift bags, wrap and curling ribbon. All items needed by December 1st.

 

If you would like to make a cash donation, checks should be made out to "Loaves and Fishes Food Pantry". Please write "Shop for Your Parents" in the memo area. Checks may be mailed to Loaves &
