Rincon UCC Justice & Witness 'Drive-By' Care Items/Food Drive in Tucson

When: Saturday, May 23rd, 8 am-12 noon

Where: Rincon Congregational UCC parking lot, 122 N Craycroft Rd., Tucson, AZ 85711-3232

Drive in, pull-up curbside by the narthex/sanctuary entrance

What: Priority food items for the ICS (Interfaith Community Services) Food Bank and priority personal-care items for care partners of TIHAN (Tucson Interfaith HIV/AIDS Network.) Both nonprofits are located in Tucson and will directly benefit our community neighbors and friends.

How: Donations will be "dropped" out of the car-window into a bin/box that a Rincon volunteer will hold or place next to the vehicle, wearing mask/gloves. Should one want to park and get out of the vehicle, we will maintain a safe distance. 

Why: Many may feel the desire to "do-something" during these unprecedented times. Rincon has had connections with ICS and TIHAN for many years, and both organizations are in need of the following, specific items:

*Toilet Paper, Bleach, Lysol/Clorox Disinfecting Wipes, Hand-Sanitizer* (limits vary, any appreciated)

*Rice in 1# bags, Tuna, Peanut Butter in 16oz, Canned Pasta Sauce in 24oz*

Above are the high priority items,...other ideas from Dollar Tree (cheapest)
*Laundry Detergent, Soap, Shampoo, Razors, Toothpaste, Dish soap*

Grateful for any donations! Any questions or a need for pick-up for those who cannot leave home, contact Di Pothast dpothast@msn.com
