(KNSI) – Metro Bus is readying the Jolly Trolley for four days of fundraising in mid-December.
It will travel to Lunds and Byerlys on Monday, December 9th. Then, it will visit Coborn’s on Cooper that Tuesday, Cash Wise in east St. Cloud on Wednesday, the 11th, and Coborn’s in Sauk Rapids on the 12th. All events are scheduled from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.
The community is asked to bring cash or non-perishable food items to donate. Organizers say they would appreciate a monetary gift, as food shelves can stretch each dollar five times as much as a traditional grocery store shopper.
Last year, the Jolly Trolley brought in around 12,730 pounds of food and nearly $5,000. Metro Bus CEO Ryan Daniel says, “As part of our mission to serve the communities we proudly belong to, the Jolly Trolley offers a meaningful way to support those in need during the holiday season.”
Daniel adds, “We are dedicated to helping put food on the tables of local families and bringing a little extra joy to our neighbors this time of year.”
