Let's Drive Out Hunger Together!

DRIVE-BY FALL Food BLITZ
SATURDAY, November 18th from 9am-12PM
On Saturday, November 18th, we will be hosting a special Drive-By Food Blitz from 9 am-12 noon in all office parking lots. Drop your donations off at any Institution for Savings office (with the exception of Boxford and Depot Square Ipswich) and our volunteers will meet you in the lot -- no need to park and come into the office! See chart below for "most needed items" in each office.
Bring a bag of food….get a bag. Bring a bag filled with non-perishable items and we will give you a FREE insulated IFS tote bag to keep!
