How Will Your Shopping Trip Support Food To Go?
Times have been challenging with COVID and the rising cost of groceries. Food to Go has been able to continue to distribute bags every week. Food to Go packs about 400 bags for children and are currently suppling granola bars and apples to Anacortes High School and Cap Sante High School.
Food to Go also provides bags to the Anacortes Family Center and granola bars for an after-school program at Mt. Erie elementary school.
Food to Go has returned to delivering bags to the schools for elementary students but are also home delivering some bags for older students. Funds from 4% Friday will be used to purchase food for children.
