Food Collection for Manna

In the giving spirit of the holiday season, there will be a Food Collection Box for Silver Spring based Manna Food Center, which encourages healthy eating choices.  The most needed foods include instant brown rice, whole grain pasta, canned tuna, salmon, or chicken packed in water, dry or canned beans, canned vegetables or fruit, shelf-stable milk boxes, cooking oil, spices, instant formula and baby foods.  Low-sodium products are preferred.  Manna does not provide goods such as soda, cakes, cookies, or candy to their customers.

Map of Holiday Decorations

Also, if you have decorated your home or yard for the holidays with festive displays, lights, trains, or villages and want a photo posted on our community Facebook page send your photo to ipp at nfcca dot org or president at nfcca dot org.  Include your address in the email to add your home to the NFCCA Holiday map, which will be posted to the listserv and available on this website to make it easy for everyone to take a self-guided walk or drive through the neighborhood to see holiday decorations.

We are looking forward to another great community event that’s fun for the whole family!
