What is March of the Mayors?
Twelve mayors across the Coast Region have agreed to participate in Extra Table’s event, MARCH OF THE MAYORS! It’s a canned food drive, a fundraiser and it’s ‘Mississippi’s Largest Food Box Packing Party’ complete with Moon Pies, Mardi Gras beads, volunteers, and an event t-shirt all rolled into one jazzy Second Line with a mission to feed hungry Mississippians!
Food Collection
The March of the Mayors is a 4-week-long event, driven by donations of specific food items, that will benefit Extra Table’s partner food pantries in the Coast Region. Each participating city is collecting one specific food item that will be dropped off at different select locations. Food collection starts February 1st and will end March 1st.
Bay St. Louis is collecting 1 pound bags of dry beans, and residents are asked to drop them off to City Hall.
COASTAL PACKING DAY IS FRIDAY, MARCH 8TH - 9:00 AM -12 NOON
