St Mary’s Food Bank partnered with the Arizona State Fair to accept free admissions on Fridays who donate canned food items.

The Arizona State Fair collects food for families in need every Friday in October. Last Friday, they collected about 20,000 pounds of food, which has already been handed to families.

This couldn’t have come at a greater gift, since St. Mary’s Food Bank is now experiencing record-breaking demand for food.

Bring 10 canned foods before 6 p.m. on Fridays for free entry; a family of four would spend nearly $60 if they decided to contribute!

The Arizona State fair is located at 1826 W. McDowell Rd, Phoenix, 85007.
