Irma Relief Donation Drive at the Tampa Hillsborough EDC Offices, Now – 9/22


September 15, 2017



In the past several days, more than 300 volunteers have prepared more than 50,000 meals to distribute to vulnerable and impacted families pre and post Irma – and this is just the beginning!

 

To keep the momentum going Tampa Strong, we are partnering with Feeding Tampa Bay as a collection site starting today and until Friday, 9/22.

 

You can drop off specific food items and supplies (unwanted/unused hurricane prep items, ready-to-eat foods, toiletries, cleaning supplies and more) at the Tampa Hillsborough EDC offices, 101 East Kennedy BLVD, Suite 1750 during normal business hours, Monday-Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. Donation drop-off boxes are stationed in our CareerSource conference room.  All items collected will be distributed to vulnerable and impacted families pre and post Irma.
