January's give back assignment is a canned food drive. So many food banks run out of food at this time of year because they give out everything they have at Christmas. We would like to help them fill their pantries back up.
The drop off point will be Grandma Stapelmans house by January 30th. We will pick everything up and deliver it to a food bank. We are not going to ask for any specific amount. Whatever you can do will be wonderful. We do ask that all donations be non-perishable, though. This means anything in a can or box will be fine. Look through your stock and if there are things that are coming close to expiring, this is a great time to get it taken care of. If you see a great price on something at the grocery store, buy a couple extra and donate them. You would be surprised how much you can get for a couple of dollars. Remember, there are food banks everywhere, so if you can't get a donation to Grandmas, donate in your area!
Keep checking the blog for updates and we will post some pics soon.
Have a blessed day!

The blog looks awesome and I'm excited about it. I hope everyone will post to it...birth's, birthdays, graduations, whatever you and your family are doing. We want this to be a general Stapelman family blog where we can all keep in contact. We're excited about the year long giving, and hoping it makes us all more aware of those less fortunate than we are.
