December 18, 2012

$50,000 needed to feed people from December through January

 

After feeding more than 14,000 needy on Thanksgiving, St. Augustine Church and its Hunger Center fed a similar number on Christmas Eve and Christmas day - 5,000 of those meals were delivered by volunteers.


A major meal was served on Christmas Eve at 4:00 p.m.

 

On Christmas day a major meal was served at 11:00 a.m. with volunteers delivering an additional 5,000 meals to the elderly and handicapped in particular, who are unable to adequately provide for themselves. Participants at the Hunger Center were also given groceries to allow them to make it through the next day.

 

More than $50,000 is the cost of supplying and delivering food and dinners in December and January and St. Augustine?s is seeking any available donations. Funds can be sent to:

 

St. Augustine Church

2486 West 14 St.

A secure website is also available to take donations at:  staugustine-west14.org

If you would like to volunteer you can contact the Church at 216-781-5530 or at staugch@earthlink.net
