Lotsa Pasta Food Drive Kicks Off February 1

Written By Stacy Bade

Help Interfaith Community Services (ICS) feed “lotsa” people during February by donating “lotsa pasta” and canned pasta sauce (no glass, please). Our goal is to collect thousands of pounds of pasta and sauce to feed those in need in our community.

A simple pasta dinner can make a real difference in the lives of food-insecure individuals and families. Pasta and sauce are shelf-stable, economical, and easy to prepare.

Please drop off your Lotsa Pasta donations at the display near the front doors of the church or at the following locations:

Northwest Food Bank and Office, 2820 W. Ina Road, Monday-Thursday, 8:00a to 4:00p; Friday & Saturday, 8:00a to 11:00a

Eastside Food Drop-off, 8701 E. Old Spanish Trail. Contact Brandon Miller (520-244-3180) to schedule a drop-off at this location.

Important notes:

  • Please donate only pasta and pasta sauce.

  • No glass containers, please.

  • All donations must be unopened and unexpired.

  • Please use small, manageable boxes for your donations. Large or heavy boxes can be difficult for our volunteers to handle. Smaller boxes help us get the food to families more efficiently.

For specific questions about Lotsa Pasta, please email Becky Lococo at blococo@icstucson.org. Thank you!
