Donations of gift cards in amounts of $25 or less to ShopRite and Acme are encouraged. Gift cards give the families the options most of us have - such as choosing real potatoes over instant or getting a store bakery or frozen pie instead of a dessert mix for which they may not have all the ingredients. Families can also choose the foods their children will eat. Since the pandemic, these agencies also have less space to store boxes of food and gift cards eliminate the need to transport heavy boxes three times.
ShopRite and Acme are the stores most convenient for most of the families served, but Zingos Turkey Feathers will also be collected.
Some parishioners may still prefer to bring boxes of food for Thanksgiving Dinner or weekend meals or baby care supplies. Lists of suggested items are available on the parish website and in the Gathering Space.
Gift cards, Turkey Feathers, boxes of food and baby care products must be at Resurrection by Monday, November 15 at 2:00 p.m. These items may be brought to Resurrection when you come to Sunday Mass or during regular office hours, Monday, Wednesday, Thursday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
