4th Annual Parma Peanut Butter Drive
All Faiths Pantry and Parma City Council President Sean Brennan are happy to announce the 4th Annual Parma Peanut Butter Drive! December 2014 will again hold an opportunity for Parma to unite as a community in support of All Faiths Pantry (AFP) by collecting jars of peanut butter for the home deliveries of groceries that AFP makes 12 months of every year, for 60+ seniors and others with limited mobility living in the Greater Parma area.
This year, the drive will launch at 5:15 p.m. on Monday, December 1st, in Parma City Council Chambers at Parma City Hall, 6611 Ridge Rd. 44129. Peanut butter can be brought to the Council offices throughout December. Checks made payable to AFP can be mailed to Council President Brennan at City Hall. AFP can source peanut butter from the Cleveland Food Bank, at only $10 for 18 pounds! The launch event will be before the regularly scheduled Council meeting.
