St. Mary’s Food Bank Offering Groceries for $30 - Worth $100.00 - Open to General Public

31. August 2008 by Teri Ellis.

For those of us living in Arizona, we realize what a great state it is. One prime example: Phoenix Valley offers assistance to those struggling economically.

With the cost of groceries these day, I found this very cool deal….St. Mary’s Food Bank Club is offering groceries worth $100+ for $30.  No identification is required - these food packages are open to everyone! No proof of citizenship, income, identification are required. Go to ABC15.news for detailed information online. I’ve included some of the information from their website below.

“Pantry Package, $13: includes 14 to 16 meal staples, such as canned vegetables and fruit, pasta and beans.
 
Meat Package, $16-$20: includes four to five meat items, such as pork chops, beef patties and chicken breasts.
 
If you buy both the pantry and meat packages combined it will cost just $30 and you will get two bonus boxes, which includes the donated surplus items.”

There are three of these food banks located in our Phoenix west valley. I’ve provided a list with addresses and times as well as a link to the website for additional information:

1. 4211 N. 43rd Avenue in Phoenix (43rd Avenue and Indian School Road) - Tuesday-Saturday, 8am-3pm
2. 13050 W. Elm Street in Surprise (south of Dysart Road and Bell Road) - Tuesday-Saturday, 8am-3pm
3. 5605 N. 55th Avenue in Glendale (55th Avenue and Bethany Home Road) - Monday-Friday, 8am-3pm
