Pennies for Poverty:
Two Cents For Change

Two Cans for Change:

To increase awareness of hunger in our area and increase donations to food pantries.

TWO CAN! Yes! We can CAN!

Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church

Please join the Two Cans for Change campaign and help raise needed non-perishable items for the local food pantries. Two Cans for Change is a program to increase donations to the food pantries in the area. We are asking that the local religious organizations designate their food pantry collection day as Two Can Sunday. Other cans and nonperishable drop off locations throughout the month: Salvation Army, Pettengill House, Community Action, Our Neighbor's Table, Newburyport Fire Stations. Please note The Salvation Army can also take fresh fruit and vegetables.
