Food Allergy Donations Needed for Colorado Fire Victims

Please see the below message from Peanut Free Planet and consider helping!

As you may know, 38,000 people have been under evacuation orders because of the Colorado Fires. Most of these people are now returning to find that the food in their homes is no longer edible and they have limited resources to obtain more supplies. The hotels and shelters they are also returning to do not have allergy friendly supplies.

A specialized allergy friendly food pantry has been set up as a cooperative effort between the local allergy support groups and the Red Cross.

Peanut Free Planet is accepting donations of gift certificates and product donations to send to  Colorado. The first shipment will be leaving on Monday June 24. Peanut Free Planet will pay the shipping for all donations. To donate products by ordering from our web site, please put our warehouse address in for the ship to address: 15252 Stony Creek Way Ste#103 Noblesville IN 46060 and choose in-store pick up for the shipping method. http://www.peanutfreeplanet.com/ If you would like to make a gift certificate donation please use this link http://tinyurl.com/mn9z6zw.
