Derby seeking donations for St. Vincent De Paul food pantry

Sharing message from Derby City/Town Clerk Marc Garofalo:

Dear City of Derby Colleagues and Friends,

Thank you very much!  
With your help, we delivered 44 jars of mayonnaise and 10 more jars of jelly to the St. Vincent DePaul Food Bank today.  

If you still have mayonnaise or jelly, please drop it off at City Hall or directly at St. Vincent DePaul Food Bank, 237 Roosevelt Drive, Derby, 203.734.7577.  A great effort for our second month!

For those who may be new to our distribution list, the Derby City Hall staff, in lieu of a Holiday Secret Santa Gift, donated food to the St. Vincent DePaul Food Pantry in December.

After discussions with the operators of the Food Bank, we asked them for monthly suggestions for food collections to concentrate on what is in short supply.  

We decided that we would start a monthly collection of one specific item to help them feed those in need in our City and the Valley.  

In January we collected jars of jelly and in February we collected jars of mayonnaise.

It’s March Madness as St. Patrick’s Day, 1^st Day of Spring, Easter, and College Basketball Playoffs are all set to take place!  

This month we will be collecting canned beef stew (Yes.  Dinty Moore or any other brand) for the St. Vincent DePaul Food Bank.  

The staff tells us that they distribute a great deal of canned beef stew, especially during the colder months as it is a complete meal, so we’re here to help.

Please consider donating some cans of beef stew and bringing them to the Town/City Clerk’s Office by the end of March and we will deliver them.

Please forward to friends, relatives, associates and colleagues.  We appreciate your support.

Thank you for your cooperation and possible participation.
