This November, Tareen Dermatology is proud to host our annual Food Drive supporting The Open Door Pantry, an organization dedicated to fighting food insecurity in Dakota County.

Now more than ever, local families are in need — and every donation makes a difference. Throughout the month, each of our nine clinic locations will have collection boxes in the lobby waiting areas for patients and staff to drop off non-perishable food items.

If you need help locating the donation box or handing off items, please ask a member of our front desk team.

The Open Door Pantry recommends donating:

• Pasta

• Peanut Butter (creamy or chunky)

• Dry black beans

• Pasta sauce

• Vegetable oil

• Paper bags

Important donation reminders:

• Items must have a label and original packaging

• Ingredient list and legible expiration dates are required

• Expiration dates must be at least 3 months away

• We cannot accept frozen or perishable food

All collected donations will be delivered to The Open Door Pantry.

Together, let’s fill our boxes and help ensure no family goes hungry this holiday season.
