Pathways to Success healthy snack drive runs thru Nov. 20

Snacks for Success, a healthy snack food drive for Pathways to Success youth, was spearheaded by Jeanine O’Donnell several years ago. Sussex County Habitat for Humanity ReStore, Georgetown Public Library and the Lodge at Historic Lewes have joined in support as drop-off locations.

Many of the Pathways to Success students experience food insecurity. They often do not have breakfast in the morning or dinner at night. It is not unusual for a student to ask the Pathways to Success program coordinators at Cape Henlopen, Milford, Seaford or Sussex Tech high schools for a snack because they are hungry. Snacks for Success will help.

Suggested healthy snack items include: cereal bars, trail mix, snack size peanut butter, microwave macaroni and cheese, popcorn, chips and pretzels, and tuna pouches with crackers.

Through Wednesday, Nov. 20, community members are encouraged to drop off healthy snack donations at these locations: Jeanine O’Donnell’s State Farm office, 16583 Coastal Highway, Lewes, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday to Friday, 302-644-3276; Sussex County Habitat for Humanity ReStore, 18501 Stamper Drive, Lewes, 10 a.m. to 5  p.m., Tuesday to Saturday, 302-855-1156; The Lodge at Historic Lewes, 1008 Kings Highway, Lewes; 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to Friday; and Georgetown Public Library, 123 West Pine St., Georgetown, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday to Thursday; 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Friday; and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, 302-856-7958.
