Each Oxford Sings to Serve Cabaret is expected to be unique to the chosen celebrated cause. This month the pioneering event will collect nonperishable food and personal care items, Kroger or WalMart cards which will be delivered to the Oxford Community Choice Pantry, whose mission is to aid Talawanda School District families through the alleviation of hunger. According to the organization’s website, “A choice pantry honors shoppers’ dignity by allowing them to choose their items according to their household size and the federally recommended nutritional requirements.”
