Terrific Tuesday Food Collection - Olathe

6:00 AM - 9:00 AM

Who doesn't enjoy starting a day in an uplifting way, but for some around the Life 88.5 listening area that can be a struggle because they're just wondering where their next meal will come from. Because food insecurity is so great, food pantries are seeing more bare shelves, but we want families and individuals to know there is a reason to hope and you can play a big role! On Tuesday, October, 3 Life 88.5 will be collecting non-perishable food items from 6:00 am-9:00 am at Hope Chapel in Olathe. All the food collected that morning will be given to the Open Arms food pantry in Olathe!
