The shelves are nearly empty at Tri-Area Ministry which serves 700-plus families in the Wake Forest, Rolesville and Youngsville area.
The need is greatest for items such as canned vegetables, canned fruit, canned meat, peanut butter, jelly, cereal, and pop-top cans like Chef Boyardee Ravioli – foods kids can open themselves while they are out of school for the summer.
And there is always a need for the food items that fill the bags parents take home to their families. Please always donate nonperishable items.
You can take your food donations to Tri-Area at 149 East Holding Avenue or drop off the items at Lowe’s Foods on Capital Boulevard near the check-out registers or in the vestibule at St. Catherine’s of Siena Church on West Holding Avenue. Money is always acceptable for Tri-Area uses it to purchase from the Food Bank of North Carolina. Make your checks out to Tri-Area and mail them to Tri-Area, PO Box 1394, Wake Forest, NC 27588.
