Food Collection for GRIN

Our FORth Saturday projects for November and December will be to collect food and other needs for Gahanna Residents In Need (GRIN).  The mission of GRIN is to alleviate hunger for Gahanna-Jefferson school district and 43230 zip code residents.

The GRIN values are driven and defined by faith in God.

G – Good Stewardship

R – Respect for ALL People

I – Integrity Focused

N – Nurturing Relationships

Monthly Needs:

November – Au-Gratin/Scalloped Potatoes, Rice/Pasta Side Dishes & Toilet Paper

December – Canned Meats (tuna, chicken), Peanut Butter & Personal Hygiene Items

(deodorant, razors, bar soap)

Laundry detergent
