This summer is going by so fast, soon we will be into fall.
LUNCH BOX BUDDY PROGRAM
The Lunch Box Buddy program has taken full steam thanks to all of you who have donated. We still have a month to go. It is wonderful to see the response of the community to the needs of our children. Be a part of the solution to child hunger and check out the Lunch Box Buddy Program on our website.
Thank you to these new sponsors: Brighton Lions Club and Michael Hatty!
PANTRY UPDATES
If you haven’t stopped by the pantry lately – PLEASE COME BY.
Tracy Davis (a member of 2/42) had two small groups join forces and laid out a plan to refurbish the clothing department, fruit and vegetable department and the staging area for grocery pick up. They gave the proposal to the Outreach Funding (Michelle Ounanian) for approval and viola. They were on their way to transform the front half of Bountiful Harvest. It is WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL, FUNCTIONAL.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
We have kept the pantry closed to clients coming in due to how much we have grown and outgrown the pantry building. We are in tight quarters and in order to have the food and clothes available, we have had to remain closed.
We are in desperate need of the following:
Tuesday: Grocery shopping (in our building), check out.
Wednesday: Kitchen, Grocery shopping check out
Thursday: Morning Shift - Kitchen, Grocery shopping (in our building)
Friday: both shifts - Grocery shopping (in our building), afternoon shift - check out and front desk
Saturday morning: Front Desk, Grocery Shopping (in our building), check out the Saturdays that kitchen help is needed.
As you will notice a resounding need for Kitchen help is needed Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and the last Saturday of the month.
I know you probably get tired of seeing this; hiowever,, please help us keep our meals going to the seniors, shut-ins, homeless and veteran. We need drivers – Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday afternoons 1 – 4 and Saturday 9:30 am - noon.
For questions on volunteering, you can call the office, or sign up to volunteer online!
God Bless,
