December’s Season of Celebrations & Sharing: Dorothy Lane Market and Good Neighbor Bags

Dorothy Lane Market in SpringboroDecember’s Season of Celebrations & Sharing: Dorothy Lane Market and Good Neighbor Bags

True hunger isn't something most of us have to deal with, if anything we've got an overabundance of the good stuff this time of year. The sugar cookies, pies, cakes, buckeyes, lemon bars and so much more are everywhere!

But too many of our neighbors don't have enough of the basics to reliably feed their families. A cutback in work hours or job loss, some unexpected repair bills, gas going up, any number of things can push them over the razor's edge of having just enough to make ends meet and coming up short. And it's not always apparent on the surface, the person with troubles might be driving a BMW or a 1983 Chevy.

So how is one of our local businesses helping address the issue? Dorothy Lane Market in Springboro (Rt. 741 a mile or two north of the SR73 intersection) is offering Good Neighbor Bags for $15.

Now what's a Good Neighbor Bag? It's a grocery bag pre-filled with many of the mostly commonly requested items by area food banks. Tuna fish, mac and cheese, soups and the like. Items that stretch the food dollar.

So how can you help? When you're shopping at Dorothy Lane Market for those Killer Brownies, ask the cashier to add a Good Neighbor Bag to your total. Take the bag and add it to the donation bins located at the front of the store. Easy peasy!

You'll feel good about helping & spreading some Christmas spirit, and some area folks are going to get some much needed food!
