Help us Fight Hunger during our 2008 Food Drive

Fewer jobs. Less pay. Higher food prices. Higher gas prices. Record home foreclosures. Reduced government support. All this has led to record demand on the state’s food shelves, Neighborhood House’s included. You can help by participating in our 2008 Food Drive. Please help!

For more information, contact Christi Anderson at 651.789.2503 or canderson@neighb.org.  To see a successful food drive in action, click here.
