We are very happy to be able to provide
much needed food items for those that come
in. The next food drive will be through the
Postal Mail Carriers in May. We appreciate the
generosity of our community to help those in
need.
The Food Pantry
continues to be
open on Monday 11-1 and Friday 4-6 for anyone
that
could
use
our
services.
We have also received a very generous
donation through the employees of Christian
Land and Cattle Company and we would like to
thank them for their generosity. We use the
monetary donations to provide adult classes,
fuel assistance programs and to purchase
needed food items for the pantry. We also
provide $10 certificates for A&M Market for
perishable items we are not able to keep.
An adult class will be presented by Ann Lenz
on how to use items in the home for physical
fitness at home, on May 1st at 4pm at the school.
