Galloway Office Accepting Food Donations Through March 12

Submitted by the office State Rep. John Galloway 

State Rep. John Galloway, D-Bucks, announced his Levittown office is a drop-off location for the Operation Helping Hand Food Drive, earlier this week according to a press release.

 Galloway and his staff are collecting nonperishable food items through March 12 as part of the United Way of Bucks County’s First Call for Help.

Local schools are encouraging their students to bring in canned and dry food items on March 12.

Items dropped off at Galloway’s office 8610 New Falls Road, Levittown, will be collected March 12 and added to the local school donations.

“Opening my office for this food drive allows other families, especially those who do not have school-aged children, to participate,” Galloway said. “I know from previous experience, our community always supports those less fortunate and I would like to thank everyone for their help.”

The food drive is looking for a variety of canned and dry items, such as cereal, pasta, soup, rice, powdered milk, canned fruit, peanut butter and jelly.

Galloway said his office also has information about programs to help children and families, including the Children’s Health Insurance Program and the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program, among others.
