Help-at-home idea: Collect your extra brown paper grocery bags and drop them off at HFS

The HFS Market food shelf uses 1600 brown paper grocery bags every month and we are running low. Bags can be dropped off in the container outside of the HFS Donation Center.

[Minnesota FoodShare @MNFoodShare]

To best support MN's incredible food shelf network, #MarchCampaign will continue through April 30.

We hope this will allow time for food shelves to receive & process donations, & for supporters to collect & deliver donations. Stay up-to-date at https://t.co/3jgjIyIH06

[Hastings Family Service @HFService]

Food and personal care donations can be made by calling 651-437-7134 to schedule a drop off appointment.

We also need brown paper grocery bags. Bags can be dropped off outside the HFS Donation Center in the provided container.
