Collect food to help others (10/30/07)

Letter to the Editor

To the editor:

"Trick-or-treat for the food bank, and help fill the shelves of our community food bank this holiday season. I am asking young and old alike to trick-or-treat for the food bank on Wednesday. It is a great community Halloween treat and it is easy.

Everyone can participate. If you are a youngster who gathers candy on Halloween, ask your neighbors and friends to donate a can of food to help the hungry, too. If you feel you are too old to trick-or-treat, this is a great excuse for you to dress up, have fun and benefit your community.

Jay County High School German students and visiting German exchange students will be participating.

This is a great opportunity for JCHS students to participate in a community service effort.

Please help us stock the shelves. The Helping Hands Food Pantry, 521 S. Wayne St., Portland, will be open to accept donations Wednesday from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m.

Ghosts and goblins of all ages: Visit your friends and neighbors and bring your bounty to the food pantry on Halloween night and receive a special treat.

For questions or donations, call me at (260) 726-7999.

Thanks for making our community stronger.
