Monthly Food/Supplies Collection
Drop off between 9 am - 12 pm
If you’d like to donate food or supplies to communities in need, please leave your bags at the south entrance of the Community Center (1250 Fifield Place) between 9 am-12 pm. All contributions will be donated to Keystone Community Services, a nearby a nonprofit working to improve the quality of life of individuals, families, seniors and youth, through food shelves and programs to support basic needs and crisis assistance.
Future Donation Drives
Volunteer Opportunity
We are currently looking for volunteers to help continue the drives. If you (or a team of volunteers) want to continue the drives for months moving forward, please contact Lindy at community@umnctc.org!
What to Donate
Food Items:
- Must be “shelf stable,” or non-perishable products that can be safely stored at room temperature for an long periods of time (a week to a year)
- Ex: canned foods, uncooked rice/pasta, long-lasting produce (like oranges, onions). More non-perishable foods to donate.
- If you’re going to donate items that might be easily crushable (like uncooked pasta, paper towels, etc.) it would be great if you could put those in a separate bag so I can load them in/out of my car and into the donation barrels easily.
Hygiene Supplies:
- Diapers (any size), wipes, formula, paper towels, toilet paper, menstrual products
In addition to separating crushable items between donation bags, please limit bag weight to 15 lb. or less.
No Household Items
Do not donate household items to CTC's donation drive (e.g. clothes, shoes, binders, stuffed animals, and kitchen pans). Our monthly donation site, Keystone Services, will not accept household items, in which they will be thrown away. You can donate household items at Goodwill or Freecycle, not CTC.
