The Boy Scouts kicked off the Scouting for Food Drive on Nov. 1, delivering 300,000 empty bags to homes throughout Eastern Washington and North Idaho. Scouts will return on Saturday morning to collect bags containing donated nonperishable food items outside the homes by 9 a.m.

The goal is to collect over 200,000 pounds of food to support more than 15 community food banks throughout the Inland Northwest, including 2nd Harvest in Spokane.

Boy Scouts will also be collecting used Scouting items, such as uniforms. There is a huge need for assistance and a large number of requests have been made for uniform donations.

For more information and for local food drop-off sites, call the Inland Northwest Council of the Boy Scouts of America at 325-4562.
