Farmington Schools Canned Food Drive Starts Nov. 6

Items collected will be distributed to people in need by the Farmington Area Goodfellows.

The Farmington Public Schools annual canned food drive for the Farmington Area Goodfellows will be held this year from Nov. 6 to Nov. 26.

All schools and support facilities in the District will hold collections of nonperishable canned and boxed food. Donations also be dropped off at both Farmington and Farmington Hills City Halls, the Farmington Hills Ice Arena and the Costick Center in Farmington Hills.

The Goodfellows rely on this canned food drive to supply the majority of the canned goods needed to fill food baskets that are delivered to families in the community during the holiday season. 

In 2012, the Goodfellows Holiday Assistance Program helped 147 families, 322 children, 49 seniors and 11 adults with disabilities.
