Help Us Stack the Stage!

Please Donate Nonperishable Food &
Essentials for Local Families in Need

Bring bags of nonperishable food items and household necessities to SCAN.
We’ll place all donations on the stage in our auditorium.
We’ll “Stack The Stage” and share progress on social media!
Together, we will make a difference for seniors and families struggling
with food insecurity this season.

Every can, box, or household item helps!
