Hi Everyone, I hope we are all off to a great start on the weekend. I thought I would share a little more info today with you. They have food drops around Utah. DROPS (Delivery Redistribution Of Produce and Surplus) distributes fresh produce, surplus items, and day old bread to 30 sites in low-income neighborhoods throughout the state of Utah. Last year over 267,180 pounds of fresh food was made available through D.R.O.P.S.
So I figure I should tell you where to go get this. Here are the upcoming drops, for April. APRIL 10 grantsville MFP @ desert peak complex, 2930 so hwy 112, 8 am
APRIL 15 st george @ dixie care and share 131 n 300 w 11 am, and wendover MFP@ heritage Motel 505 e Wendover BLVD @ 9 am
APRIL 18 Utah Food Services @ 1025 so 700 w @10am
APRIL 23 Ogden Drops @ catholic community Services 2504 F Ave. @ 9 AM
APRIL 24 Navajo Mountain MFP, & RedMesa & Cajon Mesa MFP
APRIL 29 Eureka MFP 10 AM @ LDS chapel 70 e Main st
APRIL 30 CUFS richfield Drops Pantry Mt Pleasant 359
the Utah Food Bank can take $1.00 in donations and turn it into $9.00 of services! This is only possible because of the wonderful support from our community, through volunteers and generous food donations.
Hope this helps there are also Dinner programs for low income kids , as well. I will post them soon. And In the summer there are many places parks, community centers and such that offer free lunch to kids under 18, and to parents for a low price. Last yr it was 3.00 a lunch. As soon as I can get the list of sites I will also post them. Remember to ask if there is a resource you are in need of I have not got to . I would be more then happy to help you. Thanks
