Local Fill the Basket Food Drive Begins in November
As part of the ongoing commitment to help local food pantries feed those in need, Salisbury Bank in a press release has announced its thirteenth annual Fill-the-Basket food drive.
Starting Nov. 2, 2020, all fourteen branches of the Bank, located in Berkshire, Litchfield, Dutchess, Orange, and Ulster counties, will be collecting donations of non-perishable food items and household supplies. Cash donations will also be accepted. All donated items as well as the monetary contributions collected will be donated directly to local food pantries serving each area.
Local pantries are in need of a variety of donations including, but not limited to: canned goods, cereals, macaroni and cheese, cake mix, peanut butter, mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, and tomato sauce. Household necessities such as paper towels, diapers, shampoo, and soap are also appreciated.
