Our October "Special Request" is the annual granola bar drive for our friends at Food To Go - Anacortes. F2G provides weekly food bags for hundreds of local students in need during the school year. We encourage you to include extra granola bars for our community's kids in your red bags!  

 

The Salvation Army's food bank is low on almost every type of item, so once again, food needs are great.  We've also included items the food bank has requested in anticipation of the upcoming holiday season, so this is a long one ...
