Youth Opportunities Unlimited in Strathroy has put out an urgent call for food for their food bank downtown.
That’s Kristan Foley with the Food Bank, which caters to all ages and families, not just youth. We asked Foley how soon they’ll run out of food and supplies.
Many people are struggling paying for their own groceries and gas these days and that’s not lost on Foley.
Youth Opportunities Unlimited is located right downtown. People often confuse their food bank with 37 Frank Youth Centre, but they’re at a different location…and Foley says you can drop food off to them there.
Every item is greatly appreciated!
Here’s a list of the most urgently needed items:
Pantry staples like tuna, soup, pasta, bread, buns, sauce, rice, cereal, boxed potatoes, muffins, bagels, pudding cups, granola bars, and chips.
Baby items like formula and pull-ups.
Fridge and frozen items like ground beef, chicken, hamburgers and hot dogs and lunch meat.
Also laundry soap, toilet paper and paper towels.
