Donate Peanut Butter to the Kansas Food Bank
May 16 2008, 12:55 PM EDT
*Right now we are looking for a rough number of how much you are willing to donate.
Once we have a good price and we are still working on better deals, we will let
you know.*
We are currently working on a campaign for Jericho fans to donate peanut butter to the
Kansas Food Bank in Wichita, Kansas. The Kansas Food Bank serves over 400 agencies
in 86 Kansas counties distributing over 4.5 million pounds of food each year.
These counties cover more than 73,000 square miles in Kansas.
With the school year about to end many children will not be receiving even the following
meals at their local schools. These low-income, food insecure children rely on school breakfasts
and lunches weekdays, and have no support on Saturday and
Sunday. On these days, most have barely enough to eat and some must go
without food altogether.

Since our show, Jericho, is based in Kansas we are focusing on this local food bank
for our peanut butter drive. Peanut Butter is a valuable food pantry item and is one of
the most needed items at the food bank.

Here's the information we have so far:
We are looking at a mid-late June delivery date.
We are also looking at more than one outlet for the best pricing and shipping.
What we need from fans is how much peanut butter would you be willing to
donate at the below prices so far.

HAMPTON FOODS:
ONE 18 oz jar of creamy peanut butter at Hampton Farms is $2.75
ONE case of 12 (TWELVE) 18 oz jars is $25.75
No shipping costs are included in these prices as of right now.

SMUCKER'S:
6 pack pantry pack (mixed or all one variety) - $20
12 pack pantry pack (mixed or all one variety) - $38
They are offering us currently a 5% discount on the above prices.

Here are the links for the food bank and Smuckers.
