Share
Arundel Conservation Trust will host its second annual food drive in partnership with Community Outreach Services from May 28 to June 9.
The trust will collect highly needed food and household items to help families get through this difficult season. Nonperishable items can be dropped off at the designated containers at Arundel Town Hall, Arundel Fire Station, transfer station or at the Welch Woods trail head.
The world has passed the one-year mark since the start of the global pandemic, but the need for essentials is still prevalent in the community. Through the food drive, residents can help friends and neighbors by donating food and household items.
