This is happening Friday. Great cause to contribute to if you can!

⏰ 3 days. That's it. The June 12th city-wide food drive is almost here — and we are so close to making it the biggest in Galesburg's history.

Here's what you can do RIGHT NOW: ✔️ Grab a few extra cans on your next grocery run ✔️ Share this post — seriously, every share reaches new people

And if a small monetary gift feels easier — pantries can purchase $10 worth of food for every $1 donated.
