The Richmond Community Services Department (CSD) invites you to participate in the 2017 Holiday Food Drive Blitz for a chance to win prizes!!
CSD is collecting donations of non-perishables for their 2nd annual Holiday Food Drive, which ends on December 18th. All donations will benefit the Bay Area Rescue Mission (BARM) this holiday season as they feed over 700,000 meals a year.
Participants will be entered into a drawing for an Amazon Echo Dot or one (1) of two (2) ServiceWorks gift bags.
One (1) entry ticket will be given for each non-perishable food item donated, and two (2) entry tickets will be given for each donated item that is on BARM's holiday wish list: oats, cornmeal, pancake mix, canned food (only cranberry sauce, corn, green beans, mixed veggies, sweet potatoes, and collard greens), and spices (only black pepper, paprika, chile powder, cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder).
Donations can be dropped off at Richmond Senior Center (2525 Macdonald Ave) and Richmond Plunge (1 E Richmond Ave) from 9 am to 12 pm on Wednesday, December 13th and Saturday, December 16th.
On Thursday, December 14th, CSD will offer donation pickups for Richmond residents with donations of at least 5 (five) non-perishable food items.
Winners will be notified and announced at the end of the blitz on Saturday, December 16th. Winners do not need to be present during the drawing.
