MAKE A DIFFERENCE DAY
Saturday, October 25, 2008

Make a Difference Day is the nation's largest day of volunteering. This coming Saturday, October 25th an estimated three million people in the US and around the world will commit one day to helping others and improving the planet.

The Pantry of Broward would like to invite YOU to become involved this Saturday by COLLECTING FOOD for Broward seniors in need on low, fixed incomes and for grandparents raising their grandchildren.

It is easy to do - please just ask your friends and neighbors for a few cans of food that you can collect for the elderly.  Please check out our website and become more informed on the challenges facing our seniors.  Raid your own pantry and get rid of those cans which have been sitting there forever! You CAN make a difference!

WHAT TO DO WITH THE CANS OF FOOD? Starting Monday, October 27th, you can drop off the cans of food you collect at any of the eighty-eight Bank of America branches in Broward County or in north Miami Dade county. There will be specially marked boxes in each banking center where you can drop the food.

Need more information? Please call us at (954) 358-1481 ext 114. You have always thought you wanted to help, now is the chance! MAKE A DIFFERENCE DAY.
