CHRISTMAS GIFT BOXES

Each year at during the Christmas holiday season, St. Francis donates gift boxes to those who are in need. We fill these boxes with presents and the food items to fix a traditional holiday meal.

We are asking our friends and families to help up us with this wonderful opportunity to spread love and good cheer to our fellows.

Below is a list of needed food items for those who want to contribute to this endeavor.

You may bring in donated items and leave them in the holiday collection boxes by the front desk. Collection boxes will be set out on November 10th.

Pease do not contribute bulk food items, fresh foods or food items that have expired use dates- we are unable to use these items.

Items needed for a Holiday Meal,

Turkey Stuffing Mix
Turkey Gravy Mix
Instant Mashed Potato Mix
Cranberry Sauce- Canned
Pie Crust Mix-Dry
Canned Pumpkin or Cherry Pie Filling
Canned Peaches or Pears
Canned Yams or sweet potato
Martinellis Sparkling Cider

Thank you for you generous participation in helping to spread the joy of giving during this holiday season.
