Food Drive This Saturday
June 12, 2020: The Mission and Outreach Committee, on behalf of St. Michael’s, has donated $3,000 to the Arlington Food Assistance Center (AFAC) to ensure this critical non-profit can continue to meet the needs of all Arlington County residents. Since February, AFAC has experienced a 30% increase in referrals. They expect this number to continue increasing. In addition to this monetary contribution, we are hosting a drive-by food drive on June 13. Please know we will only be accepting the following: vegetables, soups, tuna and tomato products. We also will not be able to accept items in glass bottles.(We are doing our best to support the staff at AFAC, by not creating extra work for them at this time!)
Volunteers will be available to collect your donations from 10 AM to 2 PM on June 13 at St. Michael’s. Please place items for donation in the trunk of your car to be retrieved by volunteers at an appropriate social distance. We will be staged for retrieval on the church side of 11th Road.
