The Ulster County “Food Fight” is a food collection contest held in cooperation with eleven libraries throughout Ulster County from October 1-17. The “Food Fight” is part of the Great Give Back that is happening on October 17 throughout New York State.
The common goal is to “spread food all over Ulster County” by filling up the shelves of local food pantries and to putting an end to hunger in our communities. The library that collects the highest average of food during this period wins the “Food Fight” and receives a winners’ certificate.
Help your library win the Food Fight with your donations of non-perishable (and non-expired) food items for local food pantries. It sounds like a messy fight, but this is a clean competition with other libraries in Ulster County.
