If you are lifted with the spirit of generosity by our production of A Christmas Carol: A Live Radio Play at Third Avenue PlayWorks, please consider bringing in a shelf-stable pantry item to donate to help Feed Our Neighbors this holiday season. We will collect donations in the Box Office lobby through December 31 and anyone may take what they need during our regular Box Office hours Monday through Friday 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. or one hour prior to a performance. Your donations of non-perishable food items go directly to helping our neighbors right here in Door County.
Food donations we’re looking for include:
Canned and boxed food items
Non-perishable items: powdered milk, snacks, cereals, and grains
Non-perishable meal kits: like a can of pasta sauce and noodles
Proteins: peanut butter, canned meats, canned tuna, beans, etc
Baby food and formula
While A Christmas Carol made an indelible mark on the culture of the day by popularizing phrases such as “Merry Christmas” and “Bah! Humbug!,” the largest impact was felt by readers who were carried along for the transformation of a miserly old “Scrooge” into a compassionate and generous member of his community. The Gentleman’s Magazine directly attributed a rise of charitable giving in Britain in early 1844 to Dickens’s novella.
