Committee to host a drive-thru event to stock Little Free Pantries of Beaver County and collect petition signatures required for Democrats to be listed on the primary ballot in May. 

Rochester, Pa.—The Beaver County Democratic Committee is partnering with prospective candidates to gather signatures in a drive-thru event this Saturday, February 27, 2021, from 10 am until 4 pm at the Beaver County Courthouse Parking Garage, 900 3rd Street, Beaver, PA. COVID precautions will be followed, and masks are required. 

In Pennsylvania, prospective candidates must collect signatures of registered voters in their districts to secure a place on a political party’s primary ballot each spring. In the COVID era, candidates and local committees have had to develop safe and creative ways to accomplish this task. 

The Committee also recognizes that COVID has brought challenges to many of our neighbors, so in conjunction with collecting signatures, they are requesting donations of non-perishable food and dry goods that Committee volunteers will deliver to the eleven Little Free Pantries throughout the county. 

“In 2021, Democrats are dedicated to helping improve Beaver County for all residents,” said Committee President Terri Mitko. “We are proud to pair our necessary political work with donations that benefit the Little Free Pantries.” 

All non-perishable foods, except for glass jars and canned goods, will be accepted. Especially requested:

Pasta 

Spaghetti sauce in plastic jars 

Mac and Cheese 

Ramen Noodles 

Cups of soup 

Dry cereal 

Oatmeal 

Powdered milk 

Shampoo 

Conditioner 

Bars of soap
