Note: Service Project
We will be accepting donations to the Food Bank and Pet Pantry at the Petition Party. See more information below.
Let's put our principles into action! The Food Bank and the Pet Pantry need our help. Can you bring at least one item to our petition party? Here is more information about both organizations.
The Food Bank is experiencing higher demand. They particularly need flour, sugar, salt, cooking oil and cooking spray, ketchup, mayo, pasta, jello, canned veggies, cleaning supplies like laundry detergent, personal supplies like shampoo and toothpaste, and baby items. If you want to learn more about the organization and its needs, go to http://foodbank.centreconnect.org.
The Pet Pantry of Centre County opened in June 2009 and works with all of the Food Banks in the county, supplying them with cat and dog food for their clients. Approximately 10,000 pounds of pet food is distributed each month. Often a cat or dog is the only other living being many people can count on for daily interaction. Pets are important to people and providing food is key to them staying in their homes and not being taken to the already overflowing animal shelters and rescues. Please open your hearts and donate a bag or some cans of cat or dog food on Sunday, Feb. 21. A collection bin will be provided at the petition party. Gift cards to local grocery stores are also a welcome donation. If you desire more information, please email kimbierly@hotmail.com.
For either organization, grocery gift cards are always welcome, so they can shop for items that are low. Whenever you donate gift cards, please attach the receipt--sometimes store staff forget to validate the amount.

Traditionally held on the fourth Saturday of each month, the Centre County Democratic Committee breakfasts are excellent opportunities to discuss local, state, and national politics with your fellow democratic citizens. First time attendees and people new to the area interested in Democratic politics are strongly encouraged to attend these informal, low-key events. Most breakfasts feature a guest speaker covering various current topics affecting us all.
