Thrivent Teams Up With Fondy Food Pantry For Mid Summer Food Drive

Thrivent and the Fondy Food Pantry are inviting the public to participate in the “Thrivent ‘Cans’ Hunger” Food Drive to benefit the Fondy Food Pantry on Wednesday, July 19th from 4-6 pm at the pantry, located at 573 W. Rolling Meadows Drive.

The food drive event will feature music by Seth James and Kylar Kuzio along with complimentary “walking tacos” for those who contribute nonperishable food items during the two-hour time period.

For each item donated, the Thrivent Member Networks of South Wisconsin and East Wisconsin & Upper Michigan will make a cash donation of $3 to the pantry, up to $3,000.

According to Fondy Food Pantry board president Cindy Taylor, “With kids out of school and away from meal programs, summer is a time when many families struggle to put food on the table. We’re grateful that Thrivent reached out to help with this mid-summer food drive.

Founded in 1973, the all-volunteer nonprofit organization says it’s assisting a record number of households this summer.
