HELP PROVIDE URGENTLY NEEDED FOOD

One in five children live in households that struggle to afford groceries. One in three households in Minnesota cannot make ends meet. The need is immediate in our region. We can’t do this without you. Gather your friends, family and neighbors to purchase, assemble and drop off packs filled with food staples for our neighbors.

Choose from the following packs, purchase each item, place them all into either a 1 or 2-gallon Ziploc bag and drop off completed packs at one of the participating Old National Bank locations (see below for drop-off information) now through Friday, December 12.
