Thanksgiving Food Drive
November 2 - November 25
This November, help us fill nutrition boxes for neighbors who need them. Our food drive benefits the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank and the community. Drop off donations in the barrel in the Brooks Family YMCA lobby any time between November 2 and November 25.
Most Needed Items
- Fruits and Vegetables
- Proteins: Nut butters, canned tuna and chicken, and canned or dried beans
- Grains: Cereal, pasta, rice, oatmeal, and mac & cheese
- Meal Makers: Soups, stews, chilis, and pasta sauce
- Pantry Staples: Cooking oils, dried herbs and spices

Donation Tips
When you’re choosing items, please look for ones that are:
- Easy to open (pop-top cans and pouches are great)
- Unexpired
- Small enough to fit in a nutrition box
Every item makes a difference. Thank you for helping us take care of our community.
