Doing Good While Having Serious Fun last week at the South Church Food Pantry
On the 2nd Thursday of each month, our Club has offered to help with directing traffic at the Neighbors In Need (NIN) Food Pantry at South Church.
Rick Stern, Jim Greeley and President Al Timm kicked off our participation this month by keeping the parking lot safe between the many NIN clients and the new day care offered by the Merrimack Valley YMCA at South Church.
The South Church Food Pantry is one of six pantries offered by NIN. It is also a choice pantry which allows recipients to choose which food they would like from what is offered that week.
To sign-up for our next opportunity to serve at the Food Pantry on March 13th, please CLICK HERE.
Do you have a hobby, skill, service or product you could donate to the Citizens Who Care silent auction?
We're thinking outside the box and your donation could be the most sought after item at our auction.
In addition to silent auction items, start asking people in your network if they would like to be a sponsor or donate an item for the silent auction.
The gala is our biggest fundraising event and provides the Andover community the opportunity to show sincere appreciation to these amazing unsung heroes. If you have ideas on how you can help, please contact Al Timm or Ann Ormond.
For an electronic silent auction packet, CLICK HERE. Gala tickets and sponsorship information coming soon!
