SUMMARY:Savers Fundrive at Groundwork Southcoast
DESCRIPTION:Groundwork Southcoast is hosting a community drive with Savers to raise funds that directly support access programs that help get healthy food to those who need it most. Every donation helps build a stronger and more food-secure community. \nThe drive is also a way to support sustainability and care for neighbors. Clothing donations help keep usable items out of landfills through reuse and recycling. Donations should be packed in 33-gallon bags. Assistance is available for anyone who needs bags. \nQuestions or volunteer interest may be directed to Alana Borden\, Harvest Fellow\, at aborden@groundworksouthcoast.org or by text at 774-202-9965.
