The Great Holiday Food Drive Is Extended!

PORTLAND, Ore. - Dec. 21, 2016 - PRLog -- The 9th Annual Great Holiday Food Drive is going strong and collecting hundreds of pounds of food dontions with 11 locations around the Portland Metro area!

While originally the food drive was only going from December 5 through the 21st, trucking situations have changed allowing for an extended period of nearly a week to gather and collect more food donations!

The food banks are always short on food during the holiday season, and need to replenish supplies, regardless of economic situations and hardships. This food drive helps to alleviate those shortages felt after the holidays through the spring.

Some Donation Drop Site locations will be extended until December 27th, while others will be extended through December 29th. For more information please view locations online at go to any of the following local businesses to make a donation:
