Northbrook Public Library: Food Drive Runs Throughout September

Press release from the Northbrook Public Library:

Northbrook Public Library Food Drive September 2-30

Help Stock the Shelves of the Northfield Township Food Pantry

From September 2-30, please drop off non-perishable food donations in cans, plastic containers, or boxes in our lobby to help support local families in need. We will bring all of the donated items to the Northfield Township Food Pantry in early October.

Here are some of the items the pantry currently needs most:

• Boxed Cereal
• Pancake Mix
• Juice & Juice Boxes (100% fruit juice preferred)
• Canned Mandarin Oranges
• Salt & Pepper

The Northfield Township Food Pantry was founded over 50 years ago to assist Township residents struggling with food insecurity. Today, many hundreds of Township families are eligible to visit the Pantry. The Pantry is sustained entirely by residents, civic organizations, schools, businesses, and the faith community, who generously donate food items, grocery store cards, and cash.
