Do you enjoy baking and would like to bring warmth and cheer to someone with food insecurity this Thanksgiving season? This November 24-25th, the Dining Room at FOOD for Lane County is asking everyone if they can bake some homemade treats and then individually wrap 1-3 treats (depending on how big they are) and bring them to the The Dining Room on November 24th and 25th, to be handed out on Thanksgiving. There will be 300-400 people with food insecurity being served a Thanksgiving meal so spread the word in hopes that we can get a homemade treat to each person and family. These homemade gestures really brighten their spirits.
The Dining Room is accepting donations from 9-3pm on Monday November 24th and Tuesday November 25th. If you use peanuts please label your individually wrapped plastic or wax bags as such. Please call Josie at (541) 222-0010 when you arrive and someone will come out to collect your generous homemade treats.
The Dining Room Address is:
270 W 8th Ave in Eugene, Oregon.
Thank you so much for spreading sweetness and cheer this holiday season!
