Janette, thanks so much for the reminder. My DH & I oversee the food pantry at our church. We do give away alot of food during the month. I contact the state and we get surplus canned goods from them. At the holidays we gave away close to 100 food baskets for families here in our community. We are a small town of only 1000 so giving out 100 baskets was a large amount. Year before last we only had about 38 families. The times are depressed and alot of people are needy. Our local 4H kids did toys for tots too. They got each child a toy and a new winter coat. We are at 4200' altitude so we do get some harsh weather in the winters.
