The Rotary Club of Kauai will be assisting the Kauai Food Bank on Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon at the Lihue Neighborhood Center. The Rotarians will staple remittance envelopes to brown grocery bags that are then inserted in the newspaper.
Residents of Kauai are encouraged to fill the grocery bag with non-perishable foods which can be dropped off at any Kauai fire station.
The Rotary Club of Kauai has been participating in the Holiday Food Drive for the Kauai Food Bank for the past five years. For the past two years the “Bag Stapling Party,” as it’s known on Kaua‘i, has been a friendly competition between the Rotary Club of Kauai and the East Kauai Lion’s Club. Whichever group staples the most bags in the four-hour period becomes the Bag Stapling Champion of the season.
The Rotary Club of Kauai is protecting their record this year and hopes to retain the title for the next decade.
The Kauai Food Bank is the only charity that can warehouse mass quantities of food and distribute it in manageable portions for agencies that feed the needy. The mission of the Food Bank is to provide food for the needy; respond to emergencies; and eliminate hunger.
The Kauai Food Bank is a nationally award winning organization.
