Westchester County has 200,000 people who are at risk of hunger or facing food insecurity. The suburbs have seen a whopping 64% increase in poverty and hunger over the past 15 years. Please consider contributing a bag of food in order to help us reach our goal! Together, we have an opportunity to offer significant help to our local community.
We are now accepting donations via our website (please visit our website, where you will find a link to the Foodbank for Westchester campaign under our Donations tab) and donated Holiday Bags, and this food and donation drive will commence with the Mavis Staples and Los Lobos concert at 7pm on Sunday, November 20th.
What Foods Are Needed? Please see the online list. Each bag must contain the 16 specific non-perishable items specified by the Foodbank for Westchester. (Our local sponsor, CTown supermarket of Tarrytown & Ossining, will be happy to assist you, and will have a special in-store display to make shopping easy! The estimated cost is less than $25.00 per bag.)
To view the shopping list for the grocery bags, please visit our website, or contact me, Nancy Zallo, via email at members@tarrytownmusichall.org.
Please, spread the word and encourage your friends, local community organizations, businesses, and residents to collect Holiday Bags within their groups, workplaces, and neighborhoods…and help us fill all 843 seats!
Please visit our website: tarrytownmusichall.org, in order to purchase show tickets if you would like to join us on November 20th, for Mavis Staples and Los Lobos at 7pm. We will be presenting the Foodbank for Westchester with the collected donations before the show!
Thank you so much for joining us for this challenge, and thank you so much to CTown of Tarrytown & Ossining and Coffee Labs Roasters for joining the Music Hall as generous sponsors for this special event. Together we will fill the house with food, music and our wonderful community spirit!
