The White Center Blog, along with our sister site The B-Town Blog, look forward to seeing as many of our Readers and Neighbors as possible this coming Saturday, Nov. 14th, at the White Center Albertsons for a special Thanksgiving-related food drive: our 2nd Annual Turkeys N’ Diapers Fundraiser!
It’ll run from 10am to 4pm, and all donations will go to the White Center Food Bank (food) and WestSide Baby (diapers & baby stuff).
Albertsons is located at 16th Avenue SW and SW 106th Street in White Center.
We’ll be collecting turkeys and diapers (yes, that’s correct: turkeys and diapers!).
Important note about the diapers – says Nancy Woodland, Executive Director of WestSide Baby:
“We only need diapers in large sizes, Size 5 or 6 or Pull-ups in size 4T. Thanks!”
Stuffing and canned vegetables and other Thanksgiving-related food items would be greatly appreciated.
Donations in the form of cash and checks (made out to “White Center Food Bank”) will also be gratefully accepted.
The crew will be lead again this year by the blog’s own Bart Bryan, host of the recurring interview segments “Whaddaya Think?”
“We raised over $1,100 last year. Let’s double that this year!” said Bart. “Folks around here can really use the help!”
The White Center Food Bank will make available the food, as they do year-round, to nearby families in need.
The Food Bank works hand-in-hand with WestSide Baby, a nonprofit organization that collects previously-owned items for children and babies and distributes them free of charge to South King County families in need.
In 2008 WestSide Baby served more than 12,000 children.
“See you all Saturday at the White Center Albertsons!” says Bart.
