It鈥檚 time for 91原创 residents to Fill the Ambulance again.
The annual food and clothing drive for Kim鈥檚 Angels will be taking place on Dec. 15 and 16 at the Murrayville IGA, from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day.
Organizer Kim Snow and her volunteers will be packing everything they can into an ambulance, for donation to the homeless and underprivileged.
鈥淲e鈥檙e looking for lots of protein,鈥� said Snow.
Peanut butter, pasta, canned food, jam, salmon and tuna, soups, and granola bars are all very welcome, Snow said.
In addition, the drive will be accepting clothing and baby supplies. Diapers, baby food, and baby wipes are all needed, said Snow.
What not to bring? Bread and meat, as they can鈥檛 accept items that soon expire.
For those in a hurry, the IGA is helping out. The store will be offering $10 bags already filled with suitable items. Shoppers and those passing by can simply pay for one and carry it out to the ambulance.
Snow isn鈥檛 too worried about getting the ambulance filled up.
鈥淲e get it crammed every year,鈥� she said.
The items in the vehicle will be distributed over the Christmas season and into the new year.
鈥淲e have 75 families we鈥檙e distributing the food to,鈥� said Snow.
Items will help local working poor people and the homeless.
Some items will be given out through the free store at the 91原创 Vineyard Church, which does a great deal of outreach work in 91原创.
It鈥檚 a highly local charity, Snow said.
鈥淓verything, 100 per cent donated, stays in 91原创,鈥� she said.
