AFAC Food Drive
Help our hungry neighbors by bringing food donations for AFAC during the winter season.
Saint Peter’s Food Drive
St. Peter’s encourages parishioners to help our hungry neighbors by bringing food donations for AFAC.
AFAC currently distributes groceries to more than 4,200 families every week. Not only has the number of weekly family visits broken an AFAC record, but the count of families being referred for AFAC resources also hit an all-time high at almost 6,700 referrals, as the urgency for food assistance services has surged.
Bring your food items to church.
There’s a drop-off box in the Narthex.
Need ideas of what to buy?
Most needed items include:
Canned tuna
Canned soups
Canned vegetables
Canned tomatoes

Cereal
Look for labels that say: low sodium, no salt added, no sugar added, or unsweetened, 100% fruit juice, etc., and please refrain from donating foods that are opened, expired, prepared meals, or packaged in glass. AFAC does not accept ice packs, Styrofoam coolers, or plastic bags as donations.
No time to shop? No problem!
You can also donate online.
100% of your donation will go directly to buy food for the 4,000+ families AFAC feeds every week.Thank you for your support for this important mission.
