Kiwanis food drive for Diakonia

The following is a communication from the Kiwanis Club of Greater Ocean Pines-Ocean City:

Watching the news, one realizes there is a real problem for those in need to get food. The food banks are overwhelmed, as demand is up and supplies are down. 

The local Kiwanis Club of Ocean Pines-Ocean City wants to help.

Starting next week, there will be food collections allowing club members and the public to donate. Collected items will be given to Diakonia for their stressed food bank. 

Beginning on Wednesday, May 27, Kiwanis vehicles will be in the Ocean Pines Community Center parking lot, outside the Assateague Room, for drop off of nonperishable goods from 10 a.m. until noon.

Collections will continue each Wednesday, through June 17, at the same time and location. Volunteers will be wearing masks. 

It's an opportunity to help and to make a difference!
