Donations are Helping Patch Fight Hunger in Saline

You've purchased and donated over $1,000 worth of groceries to Gleaners Community Food Bank during our virtual food drive. With your help, we're getting closer to our goal of raising $10,000 to help feed the area's hungry families.

Thanks to your generous donations, we've raised $1,107 towards our goal of $10,000 to feed families in your area through our online food drive. This virtual food drive runs through Nov. 17 and is the first for the Gleaners Community Food Bank. The 30 Michigan Patch sites are proud and honored to be their first partner.

How can you get us closer to the goal? Click the shopping link below and select items from the virtual grocery shelves. When you check out, be sure to select a Patch from the drop down menu to ensure your donation is designated for that community. Gleaners says each dollar donated provides the equivalent of three meals for hungry families.

While Gleaners does not serve Washtenaw County, any funds donated through Saline Patch will go to Ann Arbor's Food Gatherers to help people in the Saline area.
