Heroes Fighting Hunger Food Drive
At Home Clean Heroes of South Charlotte, we genuinely believe in giving back to the community. From now through January 5th, we are collecting grocery store gift cards, canned goods and other non-perishable items on behalf of Philadelphia Presbyterian Church through their Backpacks of Love drive. Backpacks of Love serves at risk children in three elementary schools in the Mint Hill area and provides backpacks of food to over 120 students each week during the school year. In mid-January, the Home Clean Heroes team will drop off all donations to then be given to families in need in the local community.
Help Us Achieve Our Goal
Our goal is to collect 2,000 non-perishable food items across all Home Clean Heroes locations to provide meals to families in need in our South Charlotte community. Learn More about Heroes Fighting Hunger here.
