Concord Knights of Columbus Hosting Easter Fill-A-Truck Food Drive

CONCORD, NH — As part of its 130th anniversary, the Concord Knights of Columbus, with the help of the Concord Lions Club, will host its 10th annual Easter Fill-a-Truck Food Drive on Saturday and Sunday.

The event will take place from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. Non-perishable food items, such as canned hams and soups, are welcome. Monetary donations will also be accepted.

Ross Express, Sun Belt Rentals, and Foxfire Property Management will sponsor the event being held at Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church at 180 Loudon Road.

"The Knights are committed to making sure no one in the Concord community goes hungry this Easter, "Grand Knight Chuck McGee said. "The Concord Lions have been great partners in helping us keep our local food pantry filled in the Spring months, when donations are typically down."

All donations will benefit Concord’s Christ the King Food Pantry, currently located in its temporary location behind Sanel Auto at 219 South Main Street.
