Cans for Christmas food drive in El Paso County

Fox21 News:

EL PASO COUNTY, Colo. — An annual Christmas Light display continuing without a hitch this year for the sixth year in a row. 

This light show is different because people don’t just pass on by; the homeowner, Mark Ingles, asks for visitor participation. Each year he puts this food container out front of his house asking for non-perishable food donations for Care and Share Food Bank.

His goal this year is 2,000 pounds of food, same as last year — but he beat last year so he’s hoping to do it again.

Now though the container looks like a freezer, it’s actually a warmer, because if can food freezes it goes bad. Ingles brings in the canned food every night and will donate it to Care and Share before the holidays.
