River City Food Bank

North Highlands Recreation and Parks District will now be taking non-perishable canned food donations to give to the River City Food Bank! Times might be rough for many people, and their ability to provide an adequate meal for themselves and their family may take a heavy hit. NHRPD would like to the community to join us in extending a helping hand to those needing a moment of extra assistance. Come visit the North Highlands Recreation and Parks District office to drop off canned foods to be given to the River City Food Bank for distribution. Cans of food must not be past the expiration date and must still have their labels.
