AFAC is again serving almost 2,500 families each week! Inflation is hitting many in our very community hard. The cost of dry goods has increased 20%, chicken 25%, milk 30% and eggs 100%! Since there are more people in our community in need than ever and because food costs are higher than ever, it is time to reinvigorate our neighborhood effort.

The AFAC COLLECTION BOX is back on the porch at 5627 4^th Street S.

Please take advantage of this easy way to help those suffering from food insecurity.

Here is a list of most in-demand items:

• canned soups,
• vegetables,
• fruit & beans,
• dried beans,
• rice,
• pasta,
• tuna,
• peanut butter,
• and other recently purchased shelf-stable items.

Thanks for anything that you can do to help.
