Love from Lafayette-Winona: Final Stretch — Tonight Is the Last Night to Donate to the Neighborhood Food Drive

📣 Neighborhood Drop-Off — TONIGHT, DECEMBER 15
This is the last day to donate through the Lafayette-Winona Civic League holiday food drive (12/15).
📍 1531 Ashland Avenue
The Pink House on Ashland
➡️ Donation box located on the front porch
⏰ Drop off by tonight
If you’ve been meaning to donate, this is your last chance to contribute through the neighborhood collection. Every item helps support families across SE Hampton Roads.
As the holidays approach, the neighborhoods of Lafayette and Winona are coming together to support our neighbors in need. This season, our community is collecting donations for the Food Bank of Southeastern Virginia & the Eastern Shore, which is facing an increased demand as families navigate food insecurity, rising costs, and delays in assistance.
Let’s finish this drive strong and continue to show what it means to give with Love from Lafayette-Winona.
🥫 What’s Needed Most
The Food Bank is especially in need of shelf-stable, nutritious staples, including:
- Grains (rice, pasta, bulk oatmeal)
- Canned goods
- Cooking staples (oils, flour, sugar, baking powder & baking soda)
- Shelf-stable milk
- Boxed meals
- Snacks
- Spices
