Stuff A Truck 2010: We Need Your Help!

By Nicole Durant November 30, 2010

Who:
You!  We need you to volunteer for our largest, annual food drive event.

What:
Stuff A Truck is an all-day food drive sponsored by Giant Food,
Fox 5, CBS Radio and YRCI in an effort to alleviate hunger in the metro area during the holiday season.  This is one of the food bank’s largest food drives.  Local residents are encouraged to drop off non-perishable food items at the four participating Giant locations.  There will be live entertainment and appearances by Fox 5 reporters and other local celebrities.  Your help is needed in collecting these donations.

When:
Friday, December 10, 2010

Where:
1. Brentwood Giant Center; 1050 Brentwood Road NE, Washington, DC 20018

2. Montrose Crossing Giant; 12051 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD 20852

3. Greenbriar Giant Center; 13043 Lee Jackson Memorial Highway, Fairfax, VA 22033

4. PG Plaza West; 3501 East West Highway, Hyattsville, MD 20782

Why:
The food bank and our partner agencies are experiencing a 25 percent increase in the demand for food assistance.  Stuff A Truck helps us serve over 478,100 residents in need throughout the National Capital Region.  Last year, we collected over 64,695 pounds of food! Volunteers are essential in collecting all of these donations.  It’ll be extremely difficult to get this done without your help!
