I want to invite my readers in the Middle Tennessee area to join me in my first ever…
Faithful Provisions Food Drive and Coupon Swap!
I have been wanting to pull together a coupon swap and have lots of readers who are interested. So, during this season I thought it would be a great time to kick-off a food donation drive, which I will donate to my church’s Food Drive to be collected on October 24th. (I will have more details later on food drop off sites and recipients.)
I know it is last minute, but for those of you who are interested please fill out the form below on your interest level. It will be on a first come, first serve basis and I will only be able to take the first 50 who sign up.
**Note: You do not have to be a coupon clipper to participate. There will be plenty of opportunities to serve for those who have never clipped a coupon! Just come and join in the fun of helping others.
There are many opportunities to serve…
*Non-Coupon Clippers*
1. Drop off any food donations.
2. Drop off coupon inserts from Sunday paper.
3. Help coupon savvy shoppers clip coupons to use in shopping for food drive donation items.
4. Shopper: Take grocery list created by attendees and shop for great deals (to maximize your dollar) to donate next week.

Kelly, this is a GREAT idea! I have a lot of coupons that I can’t use for me, but was wondering if I could give them to the food bank. I know they would rather have actual food donations, but I thought the coupons might help, too. Will you donate the leftover coupons to the food bank, too?
I also have a few follow-up questions: My coupons are already clipped – can I bring those, too, or do you prefer inserts that are still in one piece? Also, I just have one particular coupon I would like to swap for mine. I don’t want to take up one of the 50 slots for just one coupon – do I still need to sign up for the coupon swap and just look for that one? Or can I just bring my donated food and coupons and leave with the one particular coupon I’m looking for? (Sorry for all of the questions)
Jenny,
Just come and swap, donate, whatever you want to do! We will be VERY happy to have you!
