Newark Public Library's Thanksgiving Food Drive Collects Donations Through Nov. 15
The Newark Public Library is collecting Thanksgiving food donations through Nov. 15 — canned vegetables, cranberry sauce, boxed stuffing, rice, macaroni and cheese and more — to benefit Saint James Social Service Corp.
The Newark Public Library is seeking Thanksgiving food donations through Nov. 15, according to The Jersey Bee's Newark report read by this desk. Accepted items include canned vegetables, cranberry sauce, boxed stuffing, rice, macaroni and cheese, and more, the report said.
Donations from the drive benefit Saint James Social Service Corp., according to the library listing carried by The Jersey Bee. The drive's listed run is Oct. 1 through Nov. 15, with drop-off locations and times available online through the library, the report said.
The drive gives Newark residents a direct way to stock Thanksgiving tables across the city in the two weeks before the holiday: shelf-stable holiday staples dropped at the library go to a Newark social-service organization for distribution. Residents planning to give are asked to check the library's online listing for the current drop-off locations and times before bringing items in.
