Summer Food Drives


StarTek, Collinsville conducted another employee food drive this year benefiting our food pantry. The drive focused on canned goods and cereal.


Last year, food donations through StarTek were the largest to ever benefit the Community Storehouse in any one food drive; this year, StarTek broke their record.

A special thanks is due to the HR staff at StarTek for organizing this successful event & for their volunteer support of our agency throughout the year.

The Martinsville Memorial Hospital has conducted its 2nd annual employee food and hygiene drive benefiting the Community Storehouse. The drive focused on canned goods and personal hygiene items.

Donations of hygiene necessities and food numbered in the hundreds and over $700 in funds were donated for future food purchases.

A special thanks is due to Christy Stutts and Roger Spencer for organizing and working the drive.
