Food shelf thanks

The annual March Campaign for food shelves was again a huge success and donations were lower this year, but we did receive $22,180.35 and 2,063 pounds of food and essentials.

In May we will be applying for a donation from the Alan Shawn Feinstein Foundation. Each year they donate $1 million nation wide to anti hunger agencies. The amount we receive depends on how much we receive during March and April. Last year they gave us $333.

We thank all the churches, businesses, civic organizations and individual donors for their generosity. Without your help we would not be able to aid others. If you have not been to our new facility, feel free to come and visit. Our open hours are Monday and Tuesday, 1-3 p.m. and the last Thursday of the month from 6-8 p.m. 402 Wisconsin Ave. NE.
