The Golden Celery Competition asks faith communities throughout Utah to engage in friendly competition with one another to see who can donate the most pounds of food per attendee in the month of July. Winner receives the coveted Golden Celery trophy!
Last month Crossroads Urban Center's food pantries served 10,479 people. That means we provided food and other necessities to 2,871 more people than we did during June of last year. You can donate in one of the following 3 ways:
Place donations in the bins labeled Crossroads Food Pantry by the West doors.
If you would like to make a monetary donation instead of buying groceries, mark your donation “Golden Celery”. Monetary donations will be accepted from Tuesday, July 1st through Thursday, July 18th. This allows us time to shop and deliver the food. You can use the online link below or mail your check to Christ United Methodist Church, 2375 E 3300 S, Salt Lake City, UT 84109. Please include Golden Celery in the memo line.
