Donate Now to Help Feed the Masses

The Webster Groves Parks and Recreation Department is excited to be a part of the annual "Feed The Masses" food drive contest this November. Over 20 Parks and Recreation Departments from around the area have a friendly competition each November to see which city can collect the most food items to be donated to local food banks.
Drop off canned goods and non-perishable food items at the Webster Groves Recreation Complex (33 E. Glendale) November 1-30. Collected items will be donated to the St. Louis Area Foodbank.

Accepted items include:
Canned Meat and Fish, Mac and Cheese, Instant Mashed Potatoes, Canned Fruits & Veggies, Peanut Butter Jelly, Juice, Canned Chili Beans, Canned Soup Rice, Pasta Products, Cereal and Oatmeal, Powdered Milk, Crackers, Fruit Snacks, Granola Bars, Applesauce, Personal Care Items, Feminine Care Products, Baby Care Products, and  Household Essentials.

We accept and encourage donations that support special diets and/or the specific chronic conditions of our neighbors. Food donations that are high in protein, 100% whole grain, low or reduced sodium, and low sugar will make the most nutritious impact.
