Thank you to everyone who contributed to yesterdays first Free State Food Drive.
We collected over 90 items of food for the local community kitchen . That is about twice as much as I was hoping for!  You can see some pictures here

I will be dropping the food off on Monday, April 6th, after the Fully Informed Jury Association outreach.

I would like to set a goal of 150+ cans of food for the next Free State Food Drive to be held on April 26th.
Please help me make this a reality.

    Holy Crap! 90 Cans! Are you Kidding Me? That's thru the Roof!! Unbelieable! Hats off to all those who helped create this Food Drop! (And No one was forced at the point of a Gun to do it? Gee, Imagine that.)

    If things keep going this way (and all indicators are they will), We're going to need to Rent a Truck for the Delivery!

    I'd like to encourage the FSP Family "Outside" of Keene to send even just a Few Dollars ($3 will buy at least 5+ cans of Corn or Green Beans at Wal Mart) to the appropriate People in Keene, so they can Buy the Cans for the next Bah-Boom Food Drop, thus Magnifying the PR Image/Impact that the Free State Project can make.

    150 Cans is a Super Local Goal, but I'm thinking with the employ of the Out of Area/State FSP Family, that we could hit, well, 500, is such a nice number and a great step towards the Monthly Goal I'm after and that is 1000, as "1000 Donated Cans of Food" would make a Great Newpaper Headline about what type of People Participate in the Free State Project.

    Where can I send the money, to be sure it goes towards the next donation?

    Can there be a chipin?

    Perhaps the Good People at Free Talk Live would be a possibility as I’m sure they know someone who’d be happy to buy the canned food and get it there!

    this is a fantastic idea and one that will sure put the name of the FSP and especially FreeKeene out there for those less fortunate to see.

    Every little thing. . . you're helping people to garner food for their families and planting a seed in their mind about freedom.

    Kudos!

    Is there an update to this? Is there a place those outside of Keene could help finance the next food drive? Thanks :) .
