HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Hutchinson St. Vincent De Paul group is asking for help as you come to the fireworks at the Fairgrounds on the 4th of July.

"On the 4th of July at the fireworks, we're going to have trucks available to donate food," said Lovella Kelley. "It's called Celebration Food Drive. Come by and leave food for your fellow citizens. We have many calls for food at this point and our supplies are low."

They will have several locations where you can bring items.

"Look at the VIP parking lot at 20th and Poplar and inside the fairgrounds gate there by the fire station and at the driveway for the splash pad on Severance and then at Holy Cross, we'll have trucks," Kelley said. 

The need across the Hutchinson community has been as great this year as ever.

Most needed are canned meat and tuna, fruit, peas, tomato soup, chicken noodle soup, hamburger helper, instant oatmeal, snacks, cookies and instant potatoes.
