Renewal Construction Holds Thanksgiving Canned Food Drive

Decatur Metro | November 14, 2008

From Kelly over at Renewal…

November 13, 2008 – In the spirit of Thanksgiving, Decatur-based Renewal Construction is collecting canned goods during the week of November 17th to the 21st.

The generous donations will then be distributed to the Atlanta Community Food Bank.

Those who wish to donate can stop by the Renewal office during normal business hours to drop off their goods all week. For those who are unable to stop by, Renewal offers pick-up service this Monday, November 17th only. Donors need to secure their canned goods in a bag next to their front door on Monday morning at 9AM. Those wishing for pick-up must email for address verification. Pick-up will only be available to those in the surrounding Decatur and Atlanta areas.

Potential donors can visit www.renewalconstruction.com/blog for more information.
