Dear Friend,

At REAL Life Community Services, we witness every day how a simple bag of groceries can offer relief, dignity, and hope to families in need.

As we gear up for our First Friday Food Drive, we warmly invite you to join us in a meaningful way—by helping us fill our shelves for the coming month.

This month, we have a special need for:

  • Instant Mashed Potatoes

  • Spaghetti Sauce – 24 ounce (avoid glass)

  • Canned Pasta Meals

  • Canned Vegetables – 15 ounce can

  • Canned Tuna

  • Canned Chicken

  • Cereal

  • Ketchup

  • Mustard

  • Jelly

  • Ramen Noodle Packets

  • Pancake Mix

  • Pancake Syrup

  • Toilet Paper

  • Paper Towels

  • Dish Soap

  • Laundry Soap

  • Razors

  • Body Wash

These donations go directly to individuals and families in our community striving to move forward but who need a little extra support right now.

How to Give:
You can drop off your donations during our First Friday Food Drive from 3 pm-5 pm at our Warehouse916 on May 1st. Warehouse916 is located behind the Declaration House at 240 Main St. Denver, PA 17517.

If you can't drop items off at that time, please email marybeth@reallcs.org to arrange a convenient time for donations, and for larger contributions, we're happy to pick them up from your collection site!

Attached is a flyer to display at your business or add to a church program if you felt led.

Every item you give is more than just food—it reassures someone that they are not alone.

Thank you for being part of a community that shows compassion and care.

With gratitude,
Robyn Iordanescu
