The Interurban Trolley and Concord Township bus service are sponsoring food drives from Wednesday (Dec.10) through Dec. 22. to benefit Faith Mission and the Elkhart Salvation Army.

In return for passengers donating non-perishable food items, the transit services will give passengers free rides.

Containers will be placed onboard each trolleybus to collect non-perishable food items such boxes of cereal or rice, canned vegetables and soup and similar food items.

This is the third year the holiday promotion has benefited food pantries in Elkhart County.

For transit information, call MACOG at (574) 674-8894 or visit online at www.interburbantrolley.com.
