Chrysalis Center Launches #DonationCreation2020 Initiative to Fill Food Pantry During COVID-19 Crisis

Chrysalis Center announces #DonationCreation2020 will launch on May 1st and is currently seeking teams to sign up. This organization’s month-long food drive, which invites individuals to organize, form teams and collect nonperishable food items for families in need, is relying on the community’s generosity now more than ever as they have an increased need during the COVID-19 crisis.

Donation Creation runs from May 1 through June 1, 2020. This year, due to the pandemic and practicing social distancing, rather than making a "creation" of items collected, as teams have done in the past, the organization is asking for teams to be creative and come up with a team name and collect nonperishable items to benefit Freshplace, located on Chrysalis Center’s main campus, at 255 Homestead Avenue in Hartford. In addition, online donations are also accepted to help the organization purchase food in need.
