Home of Vickie Takei,2508 Dahlgreen Rd., Raleigh

Several counties in NC are organizing an after-holiday food drive in the spirit of Martin Luther King. President-Elect Obama has declared January 19th "National Service Day" and has challenged our communities to host a 'service event' prior to Jan. 20th. We are participating in the "YES WE CANS!!" food drive for the NC Food bank. This event will have several phases....we will meet on Saturday, January 10th to create and distribute our grocery bags to specific neighborhoods. We will hang the bags on door knobs w/information on what is needed and when we will collect, which will be on Saturday, January 17th. Help is needed either SAT. Or, if you want to organize a food drive at your office, school, church, etc., please contact Vickie for more information, Vickie 848-3952 or 609-3834 or QVTakei@yahoo.com. for additional info see http://my.barackobama.com/page/event/detail/gptc54
