Saturday November 5th marked the second year that the Kennett Food Cupboard was one of the recipients of the Diwali Food Drive. Kennett Area Community Service, home of the Kennett Food Cupboard, received a total of 15,700 pounds of donated food from the drive – a much needed donation to fill the empty cupboard shelves.
The food drive honors the celebration of Diwali, an ancient Hindu “Festival of Lights” and emphasizes a strong tradition of giving back to the community. Ten communities in Chester County participated in the food drive, including The Reserve at Eagle Village, Whiteland Woods, and The Reserve at Chestnut Ridge.
