Food Drive

This Fall we will partner with Food Justice DMV to serve immigrants and refugees who are experiencing food insecurity. Immigrants and asylum seekers have risked so much to get here and the pandemic has shined a light on the inequality about who gets to eat. Food Justice DMV serves thousands of households in Virginia on a hyper-local level and we have the opportunity to donate items that will go directly into the hands of households near us that need them most.

From October 9-November 13, please bring some of the items listed below on Sundays. We will have a box near that chancel where you can leave these items. At the end of the 6 weeks we will deliver them to Food Justice DMV. Here is what to bring:

Food

  • Maseca (corn flour)

  • Canola oil (any size)

  • Rice (3-5 pds)

  • Dry Beans (3-5 pounds)

Baby Items

  • Diapers size 5, 6 and 7

  • Pull Ups all sizes

  • Baby wipes

  • Similac formula with blue or orange lid

  • Enfamil formula with yellow lid
