CRANBERRY TWP — Coldwell Banker Real Estate Services is collecting jars of peanut butter for Feeding America through Sept. 25.
At the end of the peanut butter drive, the donations will be delivered to the Greater Pittsburgh Community Food Bank.
“Peanut butter is one of the most requested food items for local food banks because of its nutritional protein value,” said George Hackett, president of Coldwell Banker Real Estate Services. “Each of our 12 offices in the Greater Pittsburgh area have a collection box in the lobby where donations can be dropped off.”
The organization has offices in Cranberry Township as well as various other locations throughout the region.
To support this cause with a monetary donation, contact Penny Kennedy at penny.kennedy@pittsburghmoves.com or 412-548-1204.
