November 25, 2020

Beginning November 30 and continuing through December 18, the Cassville FFA Chapter and Cassville Food Pantry are teaming up for the FFA’s annual food drive. They are asking for the help and support of the community.
“Basic luxuries that many people take for granted are not accessible for many local families, and the need for food in our community is prevalent and very real,” said Cassville Food Pantry director, Janet Mills.
They are asking for donations of canned foods, dry goods, and non-perishable food items (rice, dried food, etc.) from the community.
Monetary donations are also greatly appreciated and accepted, as they allow the pantry to buy the goods they need as they need them.
“One dollar can feed up to four people, so every donation counts,” Mills said.
Monetary donations can be mailed directly to the Cassville Community Food Pantry at 800 West 10th Street, Cassville, MO 65625.
Although the food drive runs through December 18, the food pantry takes donations at all times of the year. They are open Monday-Thursday from 9 a.m. - 11:15 a.m. and are closed Friday-Sunday, holidays, and the fourth Tuesday of the month.
Contact the pantry with questions at 417-846-7871, or visit their website at https://www.cassvillepantry.com/. Drop off locations for this year’s food drive are:
• Cassville High School
• Whitley’s Pharmacy
• Family Life Center
• King Cash Saver
• The Courthouse
• At the River Consignment
• Tractor Supply, Cassville.
For questions about the food drive, contact the Cassville FFA on Facebook or jlittlefield@cassville.k12.mo.us.
Happy Holidays!
