Rocky River food drive | Community Spirit

The Rocky River Assistance Program needs your help! The food pantry has one of the lowest inventories in recent history. To help with this situation, a city-wide food drive will be held for the entire month of February.

Donations can be dropped off at the Rec Center by the front desk. All regular food staples are needed at this time - cereal & oatmeal, canned fruit, vegetables & tuna, non-perishable side dishes, peanut butter & jelly, mac & cheese, pancake mix & maple syrup, rice, soup, pasta & spaghetti sauce. No glass jars please!

The Rocky River Assistance Program, founded in 1984 by the Rocky River Women's Club, is an established community resource for residents in need.

The primary mission of the Rocky River Assistance Program (RRAP) is to provide participants with food and household products on a bi-monthly basis.

In addition, children in the program receive school supplies and seasonal clothing, as well as items from their holiday wish list. RRAP also provides holiday appropriate groceries and a gift for each household during the holiday season.

All items distributed by RRAP are acquired through donations from the community and surrounding areas. This community support has helped many families through difficult times.

RRAP is particularly proud to be the only organization of its kind in the area to be operated completely by volunteers from the Rocky River Women's Club.
