The Outreach Committee at First Congregational United Church of Christ is collecting goods to fill the food pantry shelves at the Salvation Army.
Realizing that food stamps can’t be used for personal items, the committee called on church members to fill boxes with necessities such as toilet paper, tissues, deodorant, shampoo and soap. This will allow people in need to spend their hard-earned dollars on items to make their families’ holidays brighter.
