Snohomish, WA – Residents are encouraged to lend a hand this Friday, November 7, as the Washington State Patrol and Snohomish Police Department host a Thanksgiving Food Drive at Fred Meyer in Snohomish.
According to event organizers, donations collected during the drive will go directly to the Snohomish Community Food Bank, helping ensure local families have meals to enjoy this holiday season. The event runs throughout the day, with officers and volunteers on-site to collect nonperishable food and monetary donations.
The Washington State Patrol and Snohomish PD say community drives like this one play a vital role in meeting growing food needs across Snohomish County. “Every item helps a neighbor in need,” organizers shared in a statement promoting the event.
Residents are encouraged to bring canned goods, boxed meals, and pantry staples. Monetary donations will also be accepted and forwarded to the food bank to purchase fresh items.
With Thanksgiving just weeks away, organizers hope the effort will stock local shelves and provide relief to struggling families before the holiday rush.
