The Sarnia Police Service says its Cops for Cans event, held on Saturday, was a big success.
The community packed cruisers with 7,394 pounds of food at Walmart and the Real Canadian Superstore.
The food will go directly to the Inn of the Good Shepherd to help a number of families who are less fortunate.
Since its inception, six years ago, Cops for Cans has collected nearly 36,000 pounds of food.
