Food donations, monetary contributions, grocery store gift cards and Angel Tree gifts are ways you can be a part of the Caring & Sharing program and help the less fortunate families in our community. Our goal is to make sure these families have all the fixings for a Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner and presents where there otherwise might not be any.

Food and monetary donations can be dropped off at the Township Administration Building weekdays 8:00 am - 4:00 pm. For the holiday meal baskets, the following items are requested.

• Canned goods: corn, green beans, peas, yams, fruit, soups, baked beans, carrots
• Pantry items: instant mashed potatoes, scalloped potatoes, gravy, pasta, pasta sauce, rice, macaroni and cheese
• Desserts: pudding mix, Jell-O mix, cookies, cake mix and icing, brownie mix
• Beverage: juice, coffee, hot chocolate
• Grocery Store Gifts cards are also welcomed

The Angel Tree will be located in the lobby of the Township Administration Building after Thanksgiving. Choose a wish card from the tree, purchase the gift requested and return it unwrapped or in a gift bag by December 18th, 2020. Please remember to attach the wish card to the gift to make sure it is given to the correct family and family member.

The Township also accepts donations of new or gently worn coats, mittens and gloves year round. For more details on the Caring & Sharing Program, please call 610-635-3543. Thank you for your generosity.
