The members of the board of Second Harvest, Inc. would like to express our sincere thanks for your continued support of our organization.  We are in receipt of the donation to Second Harvest representing our portion of the funds received in the LOCC Spring Food Drive.

 

Our program has grown over the years, both in terms of the breadth of activities as well as the increasing financial needs to support these projects.

 

For instance, in addition to the cost of the food distributions (approximately $1,500 per month), we support sixty-six children in a weekly backpack program that averages almost $1,000 per month.  We expect to add additional children this fall.

 

We are always seeking individual "Sponsors of the Month" for our distributions.  It costs $1,500 per month for a sponsorship, which is fully deductible as we are a 501 (c) 3 organization.

 

These activities are supported by a significant network of volunteers, including members from LOCC.  We welcome members of the congregation to join us at any of our monthly distributions, taking place the third Saturday of every month at Greene County High School.

 

We hope we can continue to be part of the charitable giving of LOCC in the future.  It is very gratifying to be part of the generous community where we live.

 

Thankfully yours:

 

Second Harvest, Inc. Board of Directors
