Ridgecrest food drive has collected 614 pounds of food - against a goal of 1000

Thursday afternoon, volunteers from the Ridgecrest neighborhood association took another 108.8 lbs. of food to Hopelink. Their collective total is now 614.8 lbs.

The goal for this year is 1,000 lbs.

We could use everyone's help to reach our goal by the end of the day, December 31st.

Here is a way for you to collect additional donations: If you are attending or hosting a get-together with friends and/or family - ask them to bring donations of non-perishable food for the Food Drive.
