Summer in the City Food Drive

13th Annual Summer in the City Food Drive

The Social Justice Committee invites you to participate in the 13th Annual Summer in the City Food Drive organized by the John S. Mulholland Family Foundation. The Foundation, which serves low-income individuals and families of the District of Columbia, will ensure that your gifts are distributed to those most in need at food pantries throughout Washington, DC.

Your donations of non-perishable food items will be gratefully accepted at all Masses on July 18/19, 2026. Please pick up a paper bag at Mass the weekends of July 4/5 and July 11/12.
