A few pantry staples added to the grocery cart could help a local food program this Thanksgiving. Northern Comfort Heating & Cooling is holding a **Fill the Van food drive Nov. 16–20** at its Arlington office, with a goal of collecting 500 food items in five days.

The company says donations will go directly to **Salt of the Earth Food Blessing** in Arlington.

## What to bring

The [organizer’s announcement](https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=1446880234236359&set=a.364459402478453) asks for nonperishable food, including:

- Canned vegetables, fruit and soup.
- Pasta, rice and boxed meals.
- Stuffing mix and instant mashed potatoes.
- Canned gravy and cranberry sauce.
- Canned meats and other proteins.
- Other nonperishable pantry staples.

The list offers room for both holiday meal ingredients and everyday foods. A donor could put together a few items from the list or bring the pantry staples they are able to give.

## Where to donate

Bring donations to **Northern Comfort Heating & Cooling, 525 N. West Avenue, Arlington**, during the Nov. 16–20 drive. The company has not included daily drop-off hours in its announcement. Call [425-588-4139](tel:+14255884139) before making a trip to confirm when staff can accept donations.

There is also an option for customers who already have a service appointment scheduled during the collection week: Northern Comfort says its technicians can collect food donations at the doorstep during that visit.

If that applies to you, set the items aside before the appointment and ask the office about the collection when confirming the visit. The company’s [contact page](https://www.northerncomfortpros.com/contact?ref=justabouts.com) lists the office address and phone number.
