Scouting For Food And Hygiene
October 29, 2022

Dear Cranbury Friends and Neighbors,

As Thanksgiving time approaches, the Scouts here in Cranbury again ask your help in Scouting for Foodand Hygiene. This is our annual community Good Turn to help those less fortunate in our area to enjoy Thanksgiving Day as we do the same. Thanks to the help we have received in past years, our Scouting For Food drives have always provided many thousands of food items, which our Cranbury churches have, in turn, distributed to those in need. This year the food will benefit the Holiday Food Basket Drive for the Greater Cranbury Community, organized by the Board of Deacons of the First Presbyterian Church of Cranbury. Hygiene items will go to the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen. Ithas been truly heartwarming to share with the Scouts the thanks that we have received in past years, and we, in turn, wish to thank you sincerely for your support.

Again this year the Cub Scouts of Pack 52 are distributing donationbags to our homes in Cranbury.
We request that you place non-perishable and non-breakable items in your bag. Particularly needed:

Frozen Turkeys Canned Vegetables Canned Fruits Soups
Cranberry Sauce Cereal Pasta / Sauce Crackers
Rice Boxed Potatoes Stuffing Cookies
Pancake Mix / Syrup Cake / Muffin Mix Peanut Butter Jam
Jello / Pudding
Toothpaste
Canned Nuts
Deodorant
Granola Bars
Shampoo
Olives
Bar Soap

Please place the bag by your door on Saturday morning, November 5. TheScouts of Troops52B and 52Gwill start collecting them at 9:00 am. If we missed pickup of your donations, please leave them in the collection boxes right by the door of the Fellowship Hall at First Presbyterian Church of Cranbury or call a Scout Leader for pickup.

Thanks again for your generous support. All the Cranbury Scouts, we wish you a joyous Thanksgiving.
