The Neighborhood Service Center will hold a Pit Beef & Turkey fundraiser on Friday, April 10, to support its food pantry and other essential services for Talbot County residents facing financial hardship.
The event will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Easton VFW, 355 Glebe Road. Meals include a pit beef or turkey sandwich, chips, and a drink for $11. Free delivery within Easton is available for orders of five or more.
All the cooking is being done by Catering by Jamie, with all proceeds benefiting the neighbors served by the Neighborhood Service Center’s food pantry and more.
Organizers encourage businesses and community members to place orders in advance by Friday, April 3, via email at eschoene@nsctalbotmd.org or by calling 410-822-5015.
Demand for the organization’s food pantry and support programs has grown significantly in recent months, making community fundraising efforts especially important.
“Funding support right now is absolutely critical for our pantry,” said Neighborhood Service Center Executive Director Andy Hollis. “We’re seeing increased demand this year from families who are struggling with rising costs and economic uncertainty.
“Events like this help us keep food on the shelves,” he says, “and ensure our neighbors can get the help they need when they need it.”
The Neighborhood Service Center provides food, financial assistance, and other support services to residents across Talbot County.
Cash is preferred; with checks also accepted for the sale. More at www.nsceaston.org.
