FOOD DRIVE

Healthy Food Collection for the Community

St. Vincent’s Medical Center and Aquarion Water Company are pleased to launch the 13th Annual House of Hope Food Drive. Running until November 15, 2023, the House of Hope aims to help reduce hunger throughout the Greater Bridgeport Region by addressing food insecurity, specifically through healthy foods.

Your monetary donation will enable us to purchase food to augment the donations collected at the House of Hope Collection Center, located onsite at St. Vincent’s Medical Center.

Our goal is to collect 10 tons of food to distribute to the following local pantries:

• Bridgeport Rescue Mission (Bridgeport) https://bridgeportrescuemission.org/

• Healthy Choices for Seniors (Bridgeport)

• Port 5 National Association of Naval Veterans (Bridgeport) https://www.portfiveusa.com/
