IMPORTANT NOTICES
The generosity of our Lacey Community is what keeps the Lacey Food
Bank going and growing. We would ask however that you not leave your donations outside the building. We try to
have a volunteer on site Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10 AM - Noon. If we are closed, please
call 609-242-2848 and we will be happy to make other arrangements. Food donations left outside overnight or over
a weekend are subject not only to the weather but also are attraction for pests and animals. Many times, these
donations must be thrown out.
Please help us by contributing donations other than food to the
appropriate charities.We do not have the storage space or the manpower to handle clothing or other household
donations at this time.
Thanks for your support!! Laura
Caroccia, Co-Chairman LFB
The schedule for 2009 is:
PLEASE NOTE: DISTRIBUTION WILL BE HELD AT COMMUNITY HALL, CORNER OF ROUTE 9 AND
LACEY ROAD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
The stated mission of the Lacey Food Bank Program is that no one in Lacey shall go
to bed hungry. We call on the community to reach out, find the needy and help them enroll in the program. Look around you
at your neighbors - an elderly housebound person perhaps? Or a needy youngster in your class? Transportation or home delivery
can be arranged. Help us to help them.
Emergency food situations are met at all times.
