How Much Has Dexter Contributed to Patch's Virtual Food Drive?

Patch Fights Hunger, a fundraiser for Gleaners Community Food Bank, runs through Nov. 24.

Thanks to dozens of generous donations, Patch has raised $3,276 through our Patch Fights Hunger online food drive, supporting Gleaners Community Food Bank.

Of the donations made so far, $178 has come from Dexter Patch readers—the fifth highest of the 30 Patch communities in southeast Michigan.

Our goal is to raise $10,000 to feed families throughout southeast Michigan.

Editor's note: Because Gleaners does not service Washtenaw County, all money raised in Dexter and Chelsea will be sent to Food Gatherers in Ann Arbor. Any purchase made through Patch's virtual food drive in Washtenaw County will stay in Washtenaw County.
