St. Aloysius to Hold Turkey and Ham Collection

A turkey and ham collection is being held at Trinity Academy in Caldwell Tuesday.

Area residents are asked to help those less fortunate by donating frozen turkey breasts and hams on March 26.

The collection will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. in the Trinity Academy gymnasium behind St. Aloysius Church. Volunteers will be available to take donations out of cars.

Donations will help fill the freezers of St John’s Soup Kitchen in Newark, where two pots of soup help feed approximately 200 gry people every day.    

Non-perishable food items are also welcome, including canned vegetables and soup, mashed potatoes, stuffing, rice, pasta sauce, coffee, sugar and salt.

If you are not able to make the drop-off site before 5:30 p.m., donations can be left at a cooler at the D’Angelo home, 43 Aldom Circle, in West Caldwell (Passaic to Martin to Aldom).
