Hays High DECA to sponsor Community Assistance Center food drive

Trick of Treat So Others Can Eat 2015 is just a few weeks away, and the Hays High DECA chapter is asking for community support to help restock shelves at the Community Assistance Center.

The center, located at 12th and Oak, helps those in need of groceries who might not qualify for other forms of assistance.

For those wishing to donate, simply leave nonperishable food items on your porch on Oct. 6, and various organizations will pick them up between 6 and 9 p.m.

“It’s just nice that we can give (those in need) a little more (food) when the shelves are full,” said Laurie Mortinger, co-director for the center. “If we don’t have it, we can’t give it out.”

DECA and the Community Assistance Center are still in need of more organizations to help.

To get involved, contact Shaina Prough at (785) 623-2600.
