Help fight hunger in Portage County

Join PARTA in making a difference this season by helping to “Stuff the Bus” with food for local families in need! On Sunday, November 9, from 10 AM to 2 PM, bring your canned goods and other non-perishable food items to Walmart on St. Rt. 59 in Ravenna and help us fill a PARTA bus with donations. Proceeds will benefit Kent Social Services and the RSA Food Shelf, supporting neighbors right here in our community. Every item counts—together, we can drive out hunger! A list of the most needed items can be found here.
