This November, Bethlehem is collecting food donations for our local food shelf partners. As the season of gratitude approaches, your gifts can make a real difference for neighbors in need. Bring non-perishable food items to Bethlehem anytime during November — place them in the grocery carts at the Minneapolis Campus or at the ICA table at the Minnetonka Campus. You can also give financially by donating online or by check payable to Bethlehem (note “ICA” or “CES” in the memo). Let’s fill the shelves and share the love this season! Note, our food shelf partners have asked to please be sure no food donations are beyond their expiration date.
