Food Drive
The Centre County food banks support many local families and are in need of pantry items. There is a box in the church foyer for your donations items. Collection will occur through Sunday, December 10, 2017 and will benefit Snow Shoe/Mountaintop Food Pantry located at the Snow Shoe United Methodist Church.
The following is a list of items based on the feedback from our food pantries that would be
important donations. We are unable to purchase certain items with state and federal funding
such as condiments, spices, baking items, and paper products. Please consider this list as a
starting point to assist you as you shop, donate, and/or organize a food drive. We would prefer
