FOOD DRIVE UNDERWAY IN ISHPEMING
April 15, 2010
Dick Derby, organizer of the Project Ishpeming Food Pantry food drive joined us yesterday to tell us about the project. The effort includes the distribution of four thousand bags in the City of Ishpeming that are to be filled with non-perishable food items, paper products and various hygiene product. The plan is to then place the bags on the curb on Saturday morning to be picked up by volunteers. The items will then be distributed to the Ishpeming Salvation Army and St. Vincent dePaul stores. Dick also told us about how this project came to be and why folks need to fill the bags that show up at their homes.
