The Park Central Crime Watch group is hosting a food drive for North Dallas Shared Ministries, a nonprofit that helps our neighbors in need.

The neighborhood group will have a collection truck parked at the corner of Park Central Place and Park Central Plaza this Saturday morning. Everyone is asked to bring nonperishable food there before noon. The food pantry is stocking up for the holidays, so items like canned cranberries and green beans would be appreciated — though they’ll happily accept whatever you bring. If you have any questions, you can call Charleen Dowell at 214.987.0550.
