The Dedham-Westwood Youth Action League announced today that they would join the effort in Westwood to help re-stock the food pantry. After several articles published in the Westwood Hometown Weekly, the Westwood-Based community organization will deploy over 500 bags and flyers to various residential doorsteps in the town this weekend. The flyer will request that each household supply the food pantry with canned tuna, canned fruit, coffee, and other various non-perishable items. Any family who wishes to donate but does not receive a bag because of limited resources can call 781-326-8944 to schedule a pickup.

The pickup dates are be listed below:

Sunday, August 10th, 2008 at 10:00 a.m.

Sunday, August 17th, 2008 at 10:00 a.m.

Anyone who wishes to volunteer by passing out bags or collecting food for the DWYAL should call Greg at 781-326-8944 or email him at: agnew.g.j@comcast.net
