Free drive-thru grocery giveaway, tax, Easter event on April 9
The Making A Difference Foundation (MADF) and Eloise’s Cooking Pot Food Bank are set to host a special tax and Easter event on April 9, 2025, at the Tacoma Dome, running from 10 a. m. to 2:45 p. m. This initiative aims to provide free groceries to families while also informing them about the Washington Family Tax Credit and offering on-site tax filing services.
Parents can receive tax assistance without losing their place in line for food, making the event both practical and festive. Children will be delighted to meet the Easter Bunny, adding a cheerful atmosphere to the day. Families are advised to bring essential documents, including valid IDs and Social Security cards, to facilitate tax filing. For those unable to file their taxes on-site, appointments can be scheduled for later dates. This event highlights MADF's ongoing commitment to addressing food insecurity and financial burdens within the community.
Serving 75,000 people monthly, MADF and Eloise’s Cooking Pot Food Bank distribute 1. 5 million pounds of food across Pierce and South King counties.
