After thoughtful discussion and planning, we are pleased to announce that we are able to go ahead with our next pickup up day on Saturday, JUNE 13th. It will look much like it has in the past, but we have made a few changes to ensure the safety of both our donors and our volunteers Following are important details for you about this pickup day:
If you will be missing Saturday June 13th's pick up, please be sure to email us to let us know so we do not stop by your home. If you've already notified us and received a confirmation back, you do not need to do so again.
If you have had symptoms of illness within 14 days of our pickup day, do not participate this month. Please email us to let us know you won't be participating (no need to tell us why).
Please use your reusable ASG red bag for this pickup.
If our volunteer drivers do not find a bag waiting at your address, they will not ring or knock on your door, so please make sure it's outside by 9am.
NO Sunday or Monday make up days this month. If you do not have your bag out on your porch by 9:00am Saturday, or it's missed, we regret we will be unable to pick it up later. You may either drop it off directly at the food bank (details below), or wait until our next pickup day.
If you'd prefer to drop your bag off directly to The Salvation Army's (TSA) food bank instead of having us pick it up on June 13th, feel free to do so, but please email us to let us know you will not need pickup at your home. TSA has a cart outside their front office door for drop offs -- no need to go inside. They're located at 3001 R Avenue, and their regular office hours are Mon - Thurs, 9am-4pm (closed 12-1pm for lunch).
Current Food Shortages: Spaghetti sauce, cereal (dry), canned fruit, meals-in-a-can (ex., Chef BoyRDee), baked beans, jelly, pasta-roni/rice-a-roni, Hamburger Helper, soup, Spam.
Special Request: **Please remember these are EXTRA items to add to your bag should you choose. Otherwise, please focus on food shortages.** With summer approaching, June's special request is for kid friendly items such as individually packaged snack bars, breakfast bars, trail mix, fruit cups, crackers, and chips.
Please let us know should you have any questions!
