The Dalles, OR – The Wasco County Sheriff’s Office is kicking off its first food drive collection this Saturday, inviting community members to donate non-perishable food or monetary gifts to support local families in need.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, donations will be accepted in front of the Dean Dollahide State Farm office in The Dalles from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Participants who drop off donations will receive a “Wasco County Strong” sticker, provided by the Wasco County Law Enforcement Association as a thank-you for contributing to the cause.
The department emphasized that every donation—no matter how small—goes directly toward helping families across the county struggling with food insecurity during the winter months.
Local residents are encouraged to stop by the collection site, meet deputies, and show community spirit while supporting neighbors in need.
