In March and April each year, the Locker Project (TLP) hosts a community-wide mac 'n cheese drive to stock their shelves before April school vacation. As you may know, kids are most likely to go hungry in the evening, over the weekend and during school breaks. TLP will be sending home extra food before the April break to make sure kids are well nourished when they are not in school.
The Compassion Through Action Team at Saco & Biddeford Savings has encouraged us to participate this year! Let's come together to help our communities!
We're collecting boxes and cups at all branch locations starting March 14th, and we'll wrap up the drive on April 11th. If you'd like to donate, you can do so via venmo (@mainelockerproject) or on the TLP website. You can also send e-gift cards from Hannaford to info@mainelockerproject.org or order boxes online and have them shipped to their facility.
This is the 4th Annual Mac 'n Cheese Drive, and the goal for TLP is to collect at least 6,000 boxes and cups to share with Greater Portland kids and families. It probably goes without saying, but please ensure that donations are not expired.
