2021 Annual Thanksgiving Box Registration runs from Wednesday, September 1st through Saturday, November 6th during normal pantry hours.

Loveland, Ohio – Every year, along with the assistance of Loveland City Schools, restaurants and churches within the community and in partnership with Northstar CARE Center, a food drive takes place to collect food items to supply Thanksgiving boxes to clients of the LIFE Food Pantry and other residents in the community as well as Holiday Bags for later in December.

If you live in 45140 and have not registered with the pantry please contact (513) 583.8222 or [email protected]. Residents of Chapelwood, Loveland Pines, MacArthur Park or Westover Village will automatically receive a box.  Northstar provides the turkey and delivers the boxes to the complexes.

Many students and volunteers deliver the donations from the food drive to Prince of Peace Lutheran Church where volunteers sort, date check, organize and assemble a Thanksgiving meal box to go out to area families on the Saturday before Thanksgiving. The families will have the items to prepare to sit down together and enjoy a traditional meal for the holiday.

Each classroom/grade K-8 will have specific items to collect. When your child brings home information about the Pass it On Food Drive, please be generous when you send your donations with them to take to school.
