The Colchester Milton Rotary understands local food shelf organizations receive a lot of donations during the holidays, but often the months of January and February are difficult.

Please help The Colchester-Milton Rotary Club ‘fill the truck’ with food for local families who need your support to make this winter season hunger free.
Drop off your non-perishable food items (or checks) during the month of February at these locations:
                                                               NO Expired Items Please!
 

We will have a truck to fill at the following locations from 10 AM to 3 PM:
 
Items most needed: 
 
  • $.$$**
  • Pasta sauce
  • Peanut butter
  • Bottled juice
  • Hearty Soups
  • Dry pasta – spaghetti & elbow macaroni
    (No Expired items  Please!)
This is the 6th year for “Fill The Truck”. Thanks to local residents & businesses, $6,000 and thousands of pounds of food have been donated to the Colchester Community Food Shelf - and we are adding Milton and The Islands this year!

Thank You For Your Support!
