Scouting for Food: November 21st, 2020 9am – 12pm

This year, more than any other time in recent memory, our community needs your help feeding deserving families. Food banks are reporting significant shortages and outsized demand.

The Boy Scouts of America are here to help and will be gathering donations throughout Redwood Shores on Saturday, November 21, from 9am to 12pm.

For your safety and convenience, we will be providing contactless pickup and drop off options for your donations. Simply leave your non-perishable food donations in bags in a clearly visible location outside your house by 9am on Saturday, November 21 or drop off by 12pm to the Scouts at Marlin Park.

We accept any unexpired non-perishable food items such as canned goods, pasta and rice. We cannot accept expired food, baked goods, refrigerated items or items in damaged packages.

Last year, we collected and donated almost one ton of non-perishable food items to local food banks. This year, we need your help to do even better for our Redwood Shores community!
