The holiday season always brings out the giving in others and this season has been no different at HOME. We have been overwhelmed with the generosity of those in the community when it comes to our food pantry.There have been many times during the year when our pantry has been near empty but thanks to two organizations, The Church of Latter Day Saints and the Friends of Rachel group at Poinciana High School we now have a pantry that is not only full, but overflowing!
The LDS church donated $500 worth of food right before the Thanksgiving holiday. There were yummy items such as pie fillings, baking goods, pastas, salsa and even some crea
m of wheat!The Friends of Rachel group did not have a total amount, but we estimate between $1,000 and $2,000 worth of can goods that was collected over the past few months at Poinciana High School. The Friends of Rachel group is dedicated to helping out in the community and we are so thankful they did!
Even though the pantry is full right now, please don't stop giving. We can always use more items for our pantry (and we now have a great backup system to restock with overflow items) and we are also in need of grocery and gas cards, toilet paper, and laundry detergent!
We just want to thank all those who have been so giving during this holiday season, and especially the Friends of Rachel group and the LDS church for their large food donations! Sphere: Related Content
