HUNTERSVILLE — St. Mark Church and School members collected more than 2,500 bags of groceries and $3,000 in grocery gift cards to donate to people in need during the parish’s annual Thanksgiving Food Drive.
Donations went to Our Lady of Consolation Church’s food pantry in Charlotte and to Hearts and Hands Food Bank in Huntersville. The parish also provided bags of food and grocery gift cards for 47 parish families for Thanksgiving Day.
The annual outreach collection was organized for the fifth year by K.C. Shinners, who also manages the parish’s year-round food collection efforts.
