September means school begins, and summer is on the wane. Feelings are mixed this time of year, we’ll miss summer but maybe we’re ready for cool crisp weather and the changing colours of the season. But it can be an expensive time of year, with school clothes and supplies on the to-do list. Thoughts of heating bills begin to loom for those who don’t know how they’re going to pay for it all.

The Kingsville Community Food Bank is always ready to offer help those who need it. Food bank volunteers are on hand to bring welcome relief. And we appreciate our community members for their generous donations.

Here’s a list of items that the Food Bank is looking for in September:

They also welcome gift cards for groceries, products for babies, pet supplies including dog and cat food, laundry and dish detergents, toilet paper, paper towels, and more. Cardboard boxes and cloth bags are always welcome.

If you can help, the Food Bank thanks you!

The Food Bank is located at 18 Division Street North in Kingsville across the street from RBC Bank. You can also use their drop-off bin inside Zehrs, shown in the picture below.
