A Heartfelt Appreciation for Pyramid Homes and Anwar Khalifa: Supporting Our Annual Holiday Food Drive for East Texas Food Bank Pyramid Homes Sponsoring The Annual Holiday Tons of Food Drive benefiting the East Texas Food Bank
Each year, Pyramid Homes and Anwar Khalifa extend their generous support to our community through their sponsorship of our Annual Holiday Tons of Food Drive. Their unwavering commitment to helping those in need is truly commendable, and it plays a crucial role in the success of our initiative. This food drive is dedicated to benefiting the East Texas Food Bank, ensuring that families in our area have enough to eat during the holiday season.
Join Us in Making a Difference
Starting on Friday, September 16th, we are calling on everyone in the community to clean out their pantries and bring non-perishable food items to the Walmart located at Tyler – S Broadway Ave. This event is more than just a food collection drive; it is a community effort to fight hunger and provide for those who might otherwise go without during the holidays.
The Challenge: 10,000 Pounds of Food
To underscore the importance of this cause, I will be living in a POD at the Walmart location, unshaved and unbathed, until we meet our goal of collecting at least 10,000 pounds of food. This personal challenge is a testament to the urgency and significance of our mission. I am committed to staying in the POD for as long as it takes to reach our target, highlighting the pressing need for food security in our community.
Why Your Contribution Matters
The holiday season, a time of joy and celebration, can also be a period of struggle for many families. By contributing to the food drive, you are helping to ensure that no family in East Texas has to worry about where their next meal will come from during this special time of year. Your donations will directly support the East Texas Food Bank, an organization dedicated to alleviating hunger and providing vital assistance to those in need.
