Pack the Pool Food Collection

June 7 & 8

Kick off summer while helping families in our community. During the summer months, demand for food increases in our food pantries. Families whose children usually receive breakfast and lunch at school rely on us to meet their increased food needs at home. At the same time, food donations are typically lower during the summer months. The Care Service’s second annual Pack the Pool food collection will fill our pantry shelves to make sure our families have enough to eat all summer long. The two-day community-wide collection will take place in St. Charles, Lincoln, and Warren counties on June 7 & 8.

New this year – “Pack the Pool” Pool Party. This fundraiser will be held the evening of June 7 at Wapelhorst Pool. 500 tickets will be available for sale to community members wishing to join us in celebrating the beginning of summer.
Proceeds and food donations will provide assistance, support, and resources to individuals and families in our community facing a housing crisis or food insecurity.
