THE THANKSGIVING BOX PROJECT
To all the folks who donated turkeys, and the school kids who brought all the fixin's, to the pie makers, the Enosburg Lions Club and individual folks for your generous donations, to the greeting card crafters, to all the volunteers who helped check people in & steer them in the right direction & help them out to their cars; to the clean-up crew and the Food Shelf volunteers who oversaw distribution of another 10-12 boxes the day after - many, many thanks!
Please contact Nance Shaw if you'd like to attend a planning session (in January) to help coordinate next year's project to insure that we reach as many families as are in need of our help! 802-827-3130
