It usually happens soon here if not already. I am calling some scouts I know today to find out!<br /><br />It is usually on a Saturday here.<br /><br />We have a 13.7% unemplyment rate here in our city now. I know the food banks need more, and they are getting less nationwide.<br /><br />The other thing is, if the scouts just leave you one bag, you can leave them more than that one bag. You can leave several more bags of your own (bags from the grocery store) next to the scouting for food bags.The Prudent Homemakerhttp://www.theprudenthomemaker.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445393245406196085.post-65549050228793900952009-10-23T10:56:15.389-04:002009-10-23T10:56:15.389-04:00Just an FYI -- where we live (Fort Mill, SC - outs...Just an FYI -- where we live (Fort Mill, SC - outside of Charlotte, NC) our Girl Scouts are collecting food for Make A Difference Day this week-end--it's our annual event held district wide. My daughter has collected food from neighborhoods for the past 5 years for this program -- it is a wonderful way to help stock our Care Center before Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.Katherinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445393245406196085.post-54621471326303855852009-10-23T07:29:21.691-04:002009-10-23T07:29:21.691-04:00Great giving idea, Jennifer!
