food drive

Lake Harriet Lower will be holding a food drive April 12 – 16. Donations will go to The Food Group https://thefoodgroupmn.org/.

 
With the on-set of the pandemic, the need for emergency food continues at historically high levels. Today, 1 in 8 Minnesotans are hungry, compared to 1 in 11 in 2019. Every donation provided through our food drive will go directly to the community to alleviate hunger. There also will be an online giving option for all to participate.
 
Watch for a grocery bag with an attached flyer for more info. Since the pandemic began, The Food Group has been getting requests from their partners for more culturally connected foods. For example the Latinx community prefers masa (corn flour), black beans, canned jalapenos and nopalitos, etc. If your family would prefer to provide a monetary donation then that link can be found here:
