CADET FOOD DRIVE – SUPPORTING LOCAL FOOD BANK(S)

Good Afternoon from the members of the SSC,

We would like to ask the cadets and their families to remember those less fortunate in the community as we begin to celebrate this festive season.

In an effort to support and give back to our surrounding community we are organizing a food drive taking place over the remaining parade nights of the year. We would like to ask for non-perishable food items as well as personal hygiene products to be dropped off at the cadet hall on the SCC table that we will then co-ordinate a drop off for.

GRAINS: Cereal, Pasta, Rice, Oatmeal, Granola Bars & Flour
PROTEINS: Canned meats (fish, chicken, ham) beans (dried or canned), Peanut Butter
FRUITS & VEGGIES: Fruit Cups, Jams & spreads, juices, canned veggies
PANTRY STAPLES: pasta sauces, soup & stews, crackers, canned pasta meals, baking ingredients, condements

SPECIAL DIET ITEMS: Gluten Free, low-sugar snacks, halal
HYGIENE ITEMS: Shaving Razors, deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrushes, laundry soap
PET FOOD: Cat food (wet/dry), Dog food (dry)
BABY ITEMS: baby formula, baby food jars or pouches, diapers & wipes
