  • Chocolate Ibarra 

  • Canola Oil

In addition to collecting food items at the match, collection bins will be located at Rough & Tumble Pub in Ballard and Doyle’s in Tacoma. As part of this initiative, Alimentando al Pueblo also has six participating grocery stores to shop and donate cultural foods in-store.
