Hopelink Food of the Month Collection

Corner of Blessing - September 

The Hopelink Food Bank tries hard to provide the items needed and desired by the 1700 households they support.  As we partner with them, they have come to ask us for items that they don’t usually get donated.  As we come into the holiday season, the families they support would like to prepare for the holidays and be able to do some baking, but these items are not typically donated.  (it is coming up on that time – Hopelink won’t get this collection until October.)

So, for September we will be collecting “Holiday Staples”.  These items include baking supplies, instant mashed potatoes, stuffing, gravy, etc.   To support as many households as possible, they ask for specific size packages. 

The “foods” for September are:

  • Sugar (white in 4-pound bags, brown in 1 or 2-pound packages or coconut in 1-pound packages)
  • Flour (wheat or white in 5-pound bags or gluten free options – almond, coconut, all-purpose gluten free)
  • Baking soda (1-pound box)
  • Baking Powder (about 8 ounce)
  • Salt (about 26 ounce)
  • Instant mashed potatoes
  • Stuffing
  • Gravy or gravy mix
"Out of the center, we live our faith and celebrate it through intentional caring service while growing in Christ."
