Thanks to Adrienne Lyons for her efforts in being the Liaison to Food 4 Kids and for sharing the following wonderful news.

Monday, June 1st, volunteers packed 678 cases of food for the Food 4 Kids summer food distribution. We filled 2 flatbeds (to the tune of $11,000). As we weren’t able to use the school for packing, Mary Clare generously offered the Marsh Creek club parking lot. 

The MCWA donation was certainly appreciated and well used to help fund the summer food program.
