Dear Knox Presbyterian Church~
Volunteering is at the very core of being a human. No one has made it through life without someone else’s help and our IHN guests are no exception. We are so grateful to you and the dedicated members of Knox Presbyterian Church, especially during this COVID pandemic.
Please accept our heartfelt thanks for supporting our families the week of September 13. We know that providing this help requires a big commitment from your congregation. Please convey our gratitude to all involved and let them know their efforts make a difference to people who need a helping hand.
Sincere thanks, Vicki & Cheryl
Hello All,
Thanks so much for your continued support of these kids and families. We continue to distribute food weekly reaching more than 200 food insecure kids and families. We’ve tried to alternate between families every other week so that we are able to help more in need. The KCK school district has still not re-established a distribution system, so we will continue to work through the summer program group.
Because we need to focus primarily on food, we’ve begun purchasing some supplies from Harvesters to help the dollars go further. However, some of the items that work better for the homeless aren’t accessible there, so that is where we fill in the gaps with purchases or with donations of food. (Cereal, peanut butter, cheese & crackers, granola bars are great items for us to focus.) The one item besides food we are supplying is soap, which we can’t get at Harvesters, in an effort to slow the spread of the Covid virus. (Bar soap works the best.)
Thanks so much as you continue to help! Stay healthy!
Lori
