Title:  Pennies piling up in Food Bank drive

---------------------------------------------------


The King Township Food Bank has collected a total of 135,000 ($1,350) pennies so far in their fundraising drive.
With the public's help, the drive may reach 2,000 pounds or 350,000 of the phased-out pennies
“We may actually get that ‘ton of help' that the Food Bank so desperately needs to help individuals and families make it through each month,” said Carol Ann Trabert. “As the schools report in on their drives, numbers in each village rise dramatically—children are amazing penny collectors!”
Kettleby area residents are the most generous to date, contributing 75,000 pennies. Schomberg is next with 30,000, followed by King City (20,000) and Nobleton (10,000). Challenge your neighbours and see who can raise the most!
Penny jars are available at many locations across King Township. Look for one and make your donation today!
