Bring Food Donations to Egg Hunt in Wilder Park

The annual Egg Hunt
in Wilder Park is an Elmhurst classic, but this year, it’s not just about the
eggs. At the Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 19 at 10 a.m., the Elmhurst/Yorkfield
Food Pantry, which helps feed hundreds of local families each month, will have
a tent in the park and will be accepting food donations.  Donations of cash, grocery and drug store
gift cards and non-perishable food items will be welcomed starting at 9
a.m.  Some of the most-needed food items
include meal helpers such as Hamburger or Tuna Helpers, boxed Jell-O and
pudding mixes, cereals, canned chili, canned pasta meals, canned meats and
sloppy joes, creamed soups, salad dressing and condiments.  In addition, cleaning supplies and toiletries
(toothpaste, toothbrushes, and deodorant) are also welcome.  All donations are tax deductible and receipts
will be available at the event.
