Azle FFA has been a huge supporter of CCC! They not only coordinate food drives, but also provide a great pool of respectful, hardworking volunteers. Thank you Ms. Slough and all the FFA students that have added value to our organization and lifted up those in need in our community.

🌟 Join the Azle FFA in Spreading Holiday Cheer! 🌟

Hey Azle community! 🎄 This season, Azle FFA is thrilled to kick off our Annual Gift of Food Drive, and we need YOUR help to make it a success! 🙌

Starting Dec 6th, we're collecting goodies for the Community Caring Center, an amazing organization we've proudly supported for three years. The need has grown, and we've seen them serve over 125 families in just 2.5 hours! 😲 Let's rally together and fill their shelves with the essentials they need for well-balanced meals.

🥫 What can you donate? Think rice, beans, canned veggies, soups, mac & cheese, pasta, peanut butter, and more! Check the list below for ideas. Every little bit counts!

🛍️ You student can grab a paper grocery sack, fill it up, and bring it back to school. Our students will also be distributing 1,500 bags throughout our community tomorrow afternoon! 🌍

📅 Mark your calendars! Bags will be picked up on Dec 13th, so we can deliver them to the CCC on Dec 14th. Let's make this holiday season special for those in need.

Spread the word, share the love! ❤️ Together, we can make a difference. Thank you in advance for your support! 🤝 🎁

We are grateful for our generous community that donates to support those in need! We are also grateful for our wonderful volunteers that will take a break over the Christmas and New Year’s Holidays. 2023 is already the busiest year on record for CCC and we hope our donors will enable us to continue to provide assistance with food, clothing, and household goods in 2024. We will open our donation doors again on Tuesday, January 2, 2024.

Azle High School students from PALs, NHS, and FFA were a huge help when they volunteered at our food pantry on Thursday, 11/30! Shelves were stocked, boxes were decorated and filled, and bags were assembled. It was a pleasure to have these young adults help those in need in our community.

Thank you Group O for reaching out and gifting us our Christmas dinner boxes!

🌟 Big Shoutout to Alan Pardue, our Warehouse Maintenance Tech at our Fort Worth facility!

He recently helped coordinate the delivery of approximately 1,100 recycled boxes from our facility to our friends at the Community Caring Center. Visit them online at https://communitycaringcenter.com/.

They are gearing up for a significant food donation event, and these boxes will make a world of difference. The best part? Our contribution saved them a bundle on packaging costs.

We love the community spirit.

Our volunteers were happy to stock the 1,307 pound food donation we received from the Azle Christian School. They were challenged to "Fill the Pantry" and they did!
