June 15-30, 2017 Collection Drive

Media Food Bank has a critical need for the following items at this time:

Coffee – Tea – Manual Can Openers

Why manual can openers?

The clients utilizing the food bank do not all have an electric can opener available.
We can do our part to further facilitate food access in our local community!
