PenAir Credit Union launches 2nd annual Snack Stock for cancer patients

Posted

PenAir Credit Union is gearing up for its second annual Snack Stock, a community-wide snack collection drive to benefit Ascension Sacred Heart Cancer Centers.

The drive, which began on Oct. 2 and runs through Oct. 31, invites both members and non-members to contribute individually wrapped snacks for cancer patients and their families.

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the Snack Stock initiative aims to replenish the cancer center's snack cabinet with single-serving packaged items that patients can enjoy while waiting for appointments or undergoing treatment. Suggested snack donations include chips, pretzels, popcorn, cookies, crackers, protein bars and fruit or pudding cups.

Community members can drop off their contributions at any of PenAir's 12 branch locations across Northwest Florida and Southern Alabama throughout October. For those unable to visit a branch, PenAir has created a Snack Stock Wishlist on Amazon, allowing donors to order snacks online and have them shipped directly to the credit union's Nine Mile corporate office. The wishlist is available at www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/27I5EYTWLRLYN.

For more information or questions about participating in Snack Stock, individuals can visit PenAir's website at www.penair.org or contact their local branch.
