We continue to be amazed and humbled as our loving community, in the midst of a busy Christmas season, gave so generously of their time, money donations, food, toys and clothing. Your donations are so very important to the functioning of our food bank and it is our goal to ensure that you know how much you are appreciated.
Because of each of you, our families are given a chance to have a special holiday season and hopefully change their lives for the better. It is always so touching as they receive their many items, to see their huge smiles, heartfelt thanks and grateful tears.
Our accountant, Trent Bucher, confirmed that we greatly exceeded our 2023 match of our anonymous donor. With your generous donations, we were able to serve 221 families or 502 individuals, including 27 new families, making for a very busy December.
We always knew we lived in a very special community, however with the rising costs of food, etc., this year has been such a blessing for those giving and to those receiving. The love shown from one to another has been so overwhelming.
With love and appreciation, and on behalf of
all the Wells County Food Bank volunteers
AMY MOSER and CONNIE KAEHR
