The current politically correct term for referring to people who don’t know where or when their next meal will occur is to refer to them as being “food insecure”. Well, this Saturday is a great opportunity to bring that somewhat obscure term home. This Saturday December 5th is a critically important day for feeding the hungry right here in our backyard. The Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety Community Policing Unit (CPOs) will be joining forces with area fire departments for a community wide food collection from noon to 4:00 pm.
Food Collection Sites for donations of nonperishable food items:
Comstock Fire Department at the Gull Road Walmart
Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety at D & W (Oakland Drive and Parkview)
Kalamazoo Township Eastwood Fire Department at Hardings on East Main
Kalamazoo Township Westwood Fire Department at Hardings on West Main
Oshtemo Fire Department the 9th Street Walmart
Pride Care Ambulance will be taking food donations at the Hardings in Parchment
Portage Fire Department at the Walmart on Shaver Road
