Dedicates Annual Community Service Project to ACCESS Food Bank
MEDFORD, Ore. — May 19, 2017 — Windermere Van Vleet and Associates is getting a head start on Windermere Real Estate’s annual Community Service Day, held on June 9 this year. The local group is teaming up with ACCESS Food Bank to feed Jackson County’s hungry with the help of a food drive, running May 15 – June 1.
Since 1976, ACCESS has been helping Jackson County residents break the cycle of poverty with programs designed to stabilize their basic needs and provide opportunities for long-term prosperity. The public can help in two easy steps:
- Fill bags with these suggested food items:
- Canned Foods (fruits, vegetables, beans, soup, chili, stews, tuna fish, salmon, chicken, broths)
- Grains (pasta, oatmeal, rice, quinoa, cereal, granola bars, crackers, popcorn)
- Non-perishables (peanut butter, nuts, trail mix, shelf-stable milk, olive or canola oil, honey, applesauce, juice boxes, dried fruits, spaghetti sauce)
- Bags of food can be dropped off at one of the four Jackson County Windermere offices on June 1 from 3 p.m. – 6 p.m., or a pickup can be scheduled with an agent:
Eagle Point 10558 Highway 62, Suite B2
541-826-4181
Medford 1117 E Jackson St.

Jacksonville 505 North 5th St.
541-899-2000
Ashland 375 Lithia Way
541-482-3786
Windermere brokers will deliver the donations to ACCESS headquarters in Medford as a part of Community Service Day on June 2.
