The group will hold a meeting at 10 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 11, at the Food Bank, 9675 Grand Ronde Road. “If you provide any type of services to families in our community, please consider attending,” Ambrose said. “We are looking for meal site calendars, food box sites, clothes closets, showers and laundry service. We are asking churches, church groups, departments and support groups to share with us. We are also collecting items for homeless families in our area, items for camping, bed in a bag, reusable water jugs, silverware, plates, etc.” A collection day is scheduled for 2 to 6 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 26, at the Food Bank.
