      <title>Porch Food Drive (06/08/2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;img src="https://www.greaterfirstcolony.org/resources/Pictures/porch.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Calling all First Colony Neighbors!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color="#080809" face="Segoe UI Historic, Segoe UI, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="font-size: 15px;"&gt;It's that time again. It's time for PORCH. This occurs on the second Monday of every month. Please read more for details.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;
*** We don't go to houses for pick up unless notified. ***&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;PORCH is a volunteer-led, grassroots hunger relief organization that addresses food insecurity. &amp;nbsp;It helps to ensure that local food pantries are stocked with items most needed each month. &amp;nbsp;Recently, the PORCH Chapter in Williamsburg has been supporting local food pantries such as the Williamsburg House of Mercy, FISH and Grove Christian Outreach Center.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#212121"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This month's food drive will be for Williamsburg House of Mercy.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HERE IS WHAT YOU CAN DO!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please place non-perishable food or hygiene items on your porch (or end of driveway) on the morning of &lt;strong&gt;the second Monday of the month&lt;/strong&gt;. &amp;nbsp;Please do this by 9AM.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="margin-bottom: 0px !important; font-weight: 700;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Here is the list of needed items for Williamsburg House of Mercy:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-weight: 700; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Food Box Items&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;
    &lt;p style="color: rgb(55, 55, 55); font-family: &amp;quot;Open Sans&amp;quot;; display: inline !important;"&gt;Boxed or bagged potato mix (mashed potatoes, au gratin, etc.)&lt;/p&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Canned fruit or larger bags of dried fruit&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Any veggies other than corn or green beans (canned carrots, peas, greens of various kinds, mixed veggies, etc.)&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Boxes of Hot and cold cereal&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p style="font-family: &amp;quot;PT Sans&amp;quot;; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-weight: 700; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;To Go Bag Items&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Breakfast bars/protein bars&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Microwavable bowl meals (Hormel, Dinty Moore, Chef Boyardee brad, etc.)&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Short stacks of plain crackers&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: &amp;quot;PT Sans&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font color="#080809" face="inherit"&gt;&lt;span&gt;If you plan to donate, please let me know, as we can't go to every PORCH in the neighborhood checking for donations. We will come to collect your donations if&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font color="#080809" face="inherit"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;you email:&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="mailto:firstcolonyporch@gmail.com" data-linkindex="0" style="font-family: inherit;"&gt;&lt;font color="#0078D4"&gt;firstcolonyporch@gmail.com&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul style="line-height: 23px;"&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;PLEASE LET ME KNOW in your email if you prefer we pick up the donation at the end of the driveway or porch, etc., along with your address. &amp;nbsp;Also, you can let us know if you plan to donate monthly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For those of you who prefer to drop off the donation yourself (rather than having us come to your porch), you may go to the First Colony Park Picnic Pavilion&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;the second Monday of the month&amp;nbsp;between 8AM and 10:15AM&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href="https://porchcommunities.org/williamsburg" target="_blank"&gt;https://porchcommunities.org/williamsburg&lt;/a&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thanks, First Colony!&amp;nbsp; Let's come together and help.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Amber DeVore&lt;br&gt;
