… from the Tri-Community Food Bank to the Dinking Divas and SaddleBrooke Ranch residents for the Election Day food drive.
The Dinking Divas of SaddleBrooke Ranch organized an Election Day food drive to benefit the Tri-Community Food Bank (TCFB) as well as Oracle Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation (OARR). For the TCFB, community members of SaddleBrooke Ranch were very generous and contributed 26 boxes of cereal, 55 boxes of oatmeal, 100 boxes of mac and cheese, 65 boxes of Rice a Roni and Hamburger Helper, 17 boxes of dehydrated potatoes, 33 jars of pasta sauce, 21 dry pasta packages, 110 cans of soup, 210 cans of fruits and veggies, and over 100 containers of condiments. In addition to the food items donated, $375 in monetary donations was collected and all delivered to the TCFB.
We are thankful for the Dinking Divas for organizing the food drive and to the residents of SaddleBrooke Ranch for the generous donations of food and money that helps the TCFB provide our clients with a wide variety of healthy non-perishable food options and supplemental food items such as perishable high-quality proteins.
