This week starts another canned food drive! This one will run from June 17th to July 11th. Donations will be accepted at Monterey’s home office located at 5335 Far Hills Ave. Dayton, Ohio 45429. This summer the VA has requested the following items:
- Canned proteins
- Coffee
- Athletic shorts (medium to larger sizes, new only)
- Flip flops (new only)
- T-shirts (new only)
With the first canned food drive we were able to raise 300 cans for the VA Food Pantry. This time around we have set a goal of 500 cans/items!
There are a few clothing items on here due to the warm weather they are in need of them. Donations of canned fruits and vegetables will still be accepted, however the VA does have a partnership with the Dayton Food Bank and they purchase those in bulk. So lets get creative and raise a wide variety of items for our veterans.
