OSP 18th Annual Fall Food Drive for Little Brothers - Friends of the Elderly
First-Ever Virtual and/or Live Food Drive in 2020 for Low-Income Seniors
Sunday, October 25, 2020

Old St. Pat's has a long, rich, and rewarding history with Little Brothers - Friends of the Elderly. Every year in the Spring and again in the Fall we replenish their food pantry with suitable items for seniors who just don't have enough food to make it through until the end of each month. With these unprecedented times in history, Little Brothers is now sending food twice a month as the need has expanded for these vulnerable folks.
We missed seeing your smiling faces so we brainstormed a way to HYBRID this event by hosting volunteers (LIVE) in front of the Church before and after the 8 am, 10 am and 5 pm Masses on October 25. Or you can go online (VIRTUAL) beginning now if you prefer. Thanks for your ongoing support of our very vulnerable seniors.
Highlights:
• With this new process, we will provide a list of items available on Amazon.com for purchase.
• Volunteers will then deliver the food safely following established social distance guidelines.
Our prayers have been answered and YES, we will be there in front of Church on October 25 with the Little Brothers Truck! Stop by and drop off in a very sanitary and socially distanced way. Hope to see y'all soon. – Beth, John & Joe
