The North Bend Curves is encouraging women in the local area to show their philanthropic strength by participating in the annual Curves Food Drive. While donating food to families in need is its own reward, the clubs are offering incentives for both existing and potential members who participate.

From March 1 to 31, Curves locations in the area will collect non-perishable items and monetary donations for food banks in the local area. The goal, according to Curves Founder Diane Heavin, is for the community to come together to help families in need.

Members who donate a bag of groceries or make a minimum donation of $30 during the month of March will receive a reusable Curves grocery freezer bag for free. Non-members who do likewise between March 8 and 20 can join Curves for free.

Curves of North Bend is located at 249 Main Ave. S.
