Fall Food Drive at the October Luncheon
Did you know that over 400 students in D38 are participants in Tri-Lakes Cares Snack Pack program? Each Friday they receive a backpack with a number of individual snacks to make sure they have enough to eat over the weekend. We learned at a site visit to TLC earlier this year that much of the time items for the backpacks must be purchased by TLC since not enough donations come in for these specific items. For our October 12 food drive on behalf of TLC, we are collecting for this specific program. Cash is always welcome too!
Snack pack items must be NUT FREE and individually wrapped. Suggested items include: pretzels, fruit snacks, fruit cups, goldfish crackers, Cheez-it crackers, popcorn, pudding (shelf stable), Jell-O, and nut-free granola bars.
*******************************************
We will collect items at our next luncheon. Look for Pam Perry out in the parking lot with her trunk and arms open!

Caring in Action provides bag lunches for working homeless neighbors in need at the Springs Rescue Mission.

For more information on how you can help, members can contact leaders Charlie Ann Hayes or Ann Cook. Contact details are on the SOS/CIA Home Page.
