Family Volunteer Opportunity–Kiwanis Quarterly Food Drive to Benefit Wilton Food Pantry

So often, it’s difficult to find volunteer opportunities where the whole family can participate, especially with elementary aged children. This Saturday morning, Dec. 14, the Kiwanis Club of Wilton is offering the opportunity for families to take part in a meaningful volunteer event suitable for the whole family!

All weekend the Kiwanis Club will be collecting non-perishables and personal care items in front of both the Village Market and Stop and Shop in Wilton Center, to help fill the Wilton Food Pantry shelves for the high-demand holidays. Saturday, join the Club for breakfast at the Wilton Library at 10 a.m. and then head out to the Village Market or Stop and Shop to help solicit and collect donations.

Learn more about the Wilton Kiwanis “family membership” option and connect with other like-minded, service providing neighbors. Wilton Kiwanis is the longest serving volunteer organization in Wilton, focused on community-building projects.
