There are currently 156 elderly and/or disable residents in Drew County, who until this month, received a monthly box of groceries through a government program that’s now on hold in Drew County. Other food assistance resources are also at risk.

It is my prayer that we can come together as a community to make sure these neighbors continue to have food on their tables. I’m working on creating a list of the items they normally receive each month, calculating the cost, and organizing donations. Our plan is to box groceries and deliver them to specific locations, with a pickup option for others who are able.

$60 a person/box! Who wants to sponsor a neighbor? Before any money is collected from anyone, we want to make sure we reach our goal. Once that has happened I will contact you for your donation. If you are wanting to donate more than one box please list amount of your donation in the email. Thank you in advance.

If you’d like to help – whether by donating, packing, or delivering – please send an email to Amanda Killingsworth at mandak3@yahoo.com Every bit of help makes a difference.
