INCO Partners with Be The Light FOOD PANTRY
January 19, 8 am - noon
Speak Truth | INCO Regional Summit

Our local Coast Guard men, women, and families, plus retired Coast Guard and federal furloughed workers, are facing a difficult financial time due to the recent government shutdown. While the shutdown continues, these North Coast neighbors are unsure of when their next paycheck will come.

On Saturday, Jan. 19, the Advocacy team of Indivisible North Coast Oregon (INCO) is collecting donations for the Food Pantry organized by local BSA Troop 211 and MOMS Club of Astoria to aid those struggling to make ends meet.

Bring items from the Donation List to the Lovell Showroom, 426 14th St., Astoria, between 8 am and noon on Saturday, Jan. 19. The donation bin will be at the Advocacy (A-Team) table.
