LSLA Hosts Food Drive to Support The Food Basket in Clute

News
In honor of Giving Season, we are hosting food drives to support local food banks! Our goal is to increase food stability and raise awareness of our services in all 76 counties we serve.
Giving Season takes place between November 1 and December 31. During this time, nonprofit organizations campaign for donations, champion volunteer work, and inspire acts of kindness. Giving Tuesday is on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving. Unlike its more transactional counterparts, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday encourages charitable donations. Nonprofits enact real-world changes in our communities, so donations big and small make an impact.
This year, our Clute Office spent a few weeks collecting donations for Interfaith Food Bank’s The Food Basket. It is our hope that the communities we serve have a safe and joyous holiday.
We serve the following Texas Counties: Anderson, Angelina, Austin, Bell, Bosque, Bowie, Brazoria, Brazos, Burleson, Camp, Cass, Chambers, Cherokee, Colorado, Coryell, Delta, Falls,
Fayette, Fort Bend, Franklin, Freestone, Galveston, Gregg, Grimes, Hamilton, Hardin, Harris, Harrison, Henderson, Hill, Hopkins, Houston, Jasper, Jefferson, Lamar, Lampasas, Lee, Leon, Liberty, Limestone, Madison, Marion, Matagorda, McLennan, Milam, Montgomery, Morris, Nacogdoches, Navarro, Newton, Orange, Panola, Polk, Rains, Red River, Robertson, Rusk, Sabine, San Augustine, San Jacinto, Shelby, Smith, Titus, Trinity, Tyler, Upshur, Van Zandt, Walker, Waller, Washington, Wharton, Wood; and the following Arkansas Counties: Hempstead, Lafayette, Little River, Miller.
