i95’s Camping for Cans 2022 Announced: Neighbors Helping Neighbors in Greater Danbury
Camping for Cans is i95's annual food/cash drive to benefit local families in need.
Every year, our team comes out for 3 three days and we head to a parking lot where we collect non-perishable food donations as well as monetary donations on behalf of Hillside Food Outreach. Hillside is an amazing, local organization that focuses on delivering high-quality, nutritious food to low-income, chronically ill, disabled and those who can't access a traditional food pantry.
Last year was our best year ever - raising over $20,000 in donations and over 7,000 pounds of food. Every year we get extremely competitive and try our best to beat the last.
A little run down for this year:
Who: Team i95 - We also invite our local celebrity friends. This year we have big plans and a whole slew of guests. We will be broadcasting live from the parking lot all weekend long.
What: We accept non-perishable food items, online donations, cash and checks made out to Hillside food outreach.
Where: The BJ's parking lot located at 106 Federal Road, Brookfield, CT.
When: Friday, November 18, Saturday, November 19 and Sunday, November 20. The event starts at 6 AM on Friday and goes to Sunday at 3 PM.
Why: Because it's the least we can do to give back to an amazing community.
Here is our link for online donations.
