Tis the season of giving at Wildlands Trust! Throughout November and December, we will be collecting nonperishable foods and gift cards for those in need. Food items of need include canned pastas (Spaghetti O’s, Chef Boyardee, etc.), canned fruits, peanut butter, jelly, soups, granola bars, cereal, pancake mix, syrup, and any kid-friendly items light enough to carry in a backpack. Gift cards are needed for gas stations, Walmart, and Target.

Food donations will go to the South Shore Community Action Council’s Food Resources Program, which delivers food to 45 pantries, soup kitchens, schools, and more throughout the South Shore.

Gift card donations will go to the Turning Point shelter in Wareham, a community in which Wildlands Trust holds seven conservation properties. $10 gift cards can truly make a difference, especially during the holidays!

We ask that anyone participating in a Wildlands Trust public program in the months of November and December bring an item to donate with them. You can also donate food at any time at our office, 675 Long Pond Rd. We ask that gift cards only be brought during office hours Mon - Fri 9:00 - 5:00 or to programs.

Let’s work together to make the holidays happier for everyone in our community!
