Daily Herald report

Glen Ellyn police will collect donations for the Glen House Food Pantry on Saturday, June 15.

The department’s “Stuff the Squad Car” event looks to load up a patrol vehicle with donations of nonperishable food items to help stock the pantry. The drive-through event will run from 8 a.m. to noon at the village’s police station, 65 S. Park Blvd.

Farther north on Park Boulevard, the pantry operates out of a newly renovated Craftsman-style house with a welcoming red front door. Formerly the Glen Ellyn Food Pantry, the organization serves people who live, work or go to school in DuPage County.

The pantry updates a list of most-needed items on its website and Facebook page. This week’s top needs are salsa, queso, ketchup, mustard, relish and other condiments and spices.
