Washington Food Drive

The First Congregational Church of Washington, CT will hold a food drive on Saturday, May 16 from 10am until 2pm.  The church is located at 6 Kirby Road on the Green in Washington Connecticut.   Donations will be directed to the Washington/Warren and the New Milford Food Banks.

The number of food insecure families and individuals has grown significantly in the past 5 weeks due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to help meet that demand has, in modern times, never been greater.

Needed items include any shelf stable items such as coffee, boxed milk, cereal, rice, pasta sides, ravioli, mac and cheese, tuna, soups, etc.  Gluten-free and organic items are also needed.  Cleaning supplies like paper towels and toilet paper, personal care items including diapers and wipes, adult undergarments, shampoo, and any other hygiene products are welcomed.  Cash donations will gladly be accepted in addition to, or as an alternative to, food or personal care items.  For more information, click HERE.
