2015 SATURDAY JUBILEE FOOD DRIVE

ONE DAY – ONE PURPOSE – END HUNGER

On Saturday, July 25, Operation Food Search is hosting Saturday Jubilee, a community-wide food drive to restock its distribution center this summer. From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., volunteers will be out front collecting food at 118 grocery stores throughout the St. Louis region, including Schnuck Markets, Dierbergs Markets, Walmart, Straub’s Markets, and Price Chopper.

Operation Food Search volunteers will be on hand the last Saturday of July for Saturday Jubilee to greet customers and collect donations at grocery stores in the City of St. Louis, and in St. Louis, St. Charles, Jefferson, and Franklin Counties in Missouri, and St. Clair and Madison Counties in Illinois. A diverse cross-section of volunteer groups are coming together this one day for one purpose – to help end hunger, including volunteers from Operation Food Search’s 250 partner agencies – food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters.
