Groveland Police to Host “Stuff a Cruiser” Food Drive

GROVELAND — Deputy Chief Jeffrey Gillen and the Groveland Police Department invite the community to the “Stuff a Cruiser” food drive next month to benefit the Groveland Council on Aging and the Sacred Heart Food Pantry.

WHEN:

Saturday, Nov. 19 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

WHERE:

Groveland Police Station, 181 Main St. (Rear parking lot)

WHAT:

The Groveland Police Department is asking residents and community members to donate canned and nonperishable items to help those in need. This includes canned fruit, canned veggies, soups, baked beans, boxed stuffing mix, boxed potatoes and yams, peanut butter, jelly, jam, dried pasta and pasta sauce.

The Food Drive was inspired by the Haverhill Police Department, which recently held a food drive for Sacred Heart Food Pantry.

“I commend the officers taking initiative to inspire good deeds in our own community after seeing the success of a neighboring department,” Deputy Gillen said. “We encourage all Groveland community members to donate.”
