Congressman Jason Smith Announces Canned Food Drive
Donations welcomed at Farmington District Office from Nov. 30 – Dec. 7

Today, Congressman Jason Smith announced that his Farmington Office is joining the Farmington Regional Chamber of Commerce Christmas Tree Contest. His tree in Farmington will be made of canned goods donated by the community.

“The folks in our district have the biggest hearts in the country,” said Congressman Smith. “This Christmas season it’s nice to take a step back from the holiday hustle and bustle and do something special for our neighbors.”

Congressman Smith invites his Farmington-area constituents to bring canned food items to his office at 22 East Columbia between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Nov. 30 through Dec 7.  Donations will be used to build the tree and given to the Farmington Ministerial Alliance and St. Vincent de Paul food pantries to help local families.

The Christmas tree will be judged on Dec. 7.  For more information, please contact the Farmington office at 573-756-9755.
