Target donates winter coats

Volunteers in Foodshare's retail donation pick-up program routinely pick up food donations at area Target stores.  Since Target expanded their food sections recently, these pick-ups have often resulted in large donations of food going to local food pantries in the towns where the stores are located.

As a result of developing these relationships with Target, yesterday, they donated four huge boxes of brand new winter coats!  They are re-setting the stores with spring clothing and in the past, these coats might just have been discarded.  What a wonderful thing these coats will be for some of the families served by Foodshare's partner agencies, for there is plenty of winter left!
