Young Giving

The Food Shelf had a delightful visit from 6-1/2-year-old Erin today. Erin decided to have a Lemonade Stand. The money she earned was earmarked for the Food Shelf. Erin came in today with her earnings and shared that she wanted to help others who are hungry. 

Erin comes by this thought of helping others naturally as her Grandma and Grandpa (Mary Ann and Henry Padgett) donate many hours each year to Emergency Services. They step up and help in so many ways...from sorting food to setting up the food shelf for distribution to assisting with Toys for Tots and much more.

Catholic Charities is blessed and thankful to have their help, and to see it being passed on to younger generations!
