Ken Wilber announced in church yesterday that the Ghent VFW and Kinderhook Elks are joining forces again this year to put together toy/food baskets. Last year over 150 families were served. (Is that correct, Ken?) This is such good local support for those in need. If you know of a family who would benefit, Ken has a form you can fill out.
The VFW and Elks are looking for monetary donations. $50 will buy a basket that includes toys and food for a family; $30 will fund a food basket. Won't you consider joining the effort?
Beginning December 13 (the evening of the fabulous concert that will be filling our church with wonderful male voices - who can resist?), help is needed every evening to help put the baskets together at St. Luke's in Valatie. (758.9461 - Why is this number different than the one I have on the website?)
