Golden Community Food Drive
Updated: Jun 7, 2021
UPDATE 6/7/21: Total pounds of food received: 3,200! Thank you to the Golden Community for your support!
Help the Christian Action Guild (CAG) Golden’s Food Pantry, Calvary Food Shelf Pantry, and BGoldN Fresh Food Pantry stock their shelves.
In the past, the National Post Masters hosted the National Postal Food Drive each May. An event that usually generates approximately 25,000 LBS of non-perishable food for the Golden Community! Due to COVID-19, however, this event has been cancelled for the second year in a row. This year, CAG teamed up with Calvary Food Shelf Pantry and BGoldN Fresh Food Pantry to host the Golden Community Food Drive. We'd appreciate your support to make this event a success!
