Cough it up people – Give!

by Paula D. on November 10, 2011 10:03 am in Food

November is the start of the giving season. People right here in NYC struggle to put food on the table. Lets helps our neighbors this holiday season! Please donate non-perishables to your locate Community Center, Parish or Synagogue.

AND… COUGH IT UP PEOPLE! Would you really want to eat canned Goya string beans? No, of course not. Pick up some nice kalamata olives, extra virgin olive oil, Tuttorosso canned tomatoes, or marinated artichokes for God’s sake!

This Sunday (11/13), The Glorified Tomato is donating to St. Brigid’s Thanksgiving Food Drive. If you live in the area, don’t forget to drop off your donation. All food collected at St. Brigid’s will be distributed directly to families and individuals living in the Ridgewood community this holiday season. Bring your donations to the Church, CCD Office, or the School (409 Linden St, Ridgewood, 718.821.1690).
