Saturday, November 12 is Scouting for Food, a nationwide annual food drive organized by the BSA or Boy Scouts of America. Since 1995, local Arlington scouts from the Chain Bridge District of the National Capital Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America have collected over 1,000,000 pounds of food for AFAC!
On Saturday, November 5, the scouts will drop off bags to many single-family homes in Arlington. If you received a bag, please consider donating non-perishable food items (canned fruit, canned vegetables, canned tuna, canned tomato products or peanut butter) and leave your bag of donations by your door by 8:00 am on Saturday, November 12.
Thank you for all your support for this event! With inflation hitting us all, these donations are even more crucial this year to make sure we can help each and every family that comes to our doors.
