"THANK YOU" LETTER RECEIVED FROM THE AKRON-CANTON REGIONAL FOOD BANK

   The Rotary office received a "Thank You" letter dated December 22, 2015, from Daniel R. Flowers, President and CEO of the Akron-Canton Regional Food Bank.  The letter reads:

 

"Dear Friends - This year, nearly one in four children in our community will face hunger.  Because of the support of dedicated partners like you, the Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank will continually be there for families like Tabitha and Elijah's.

 

Tabitha and her four-year-old son, Elijah, visited an Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank member food pantry.  She chose several items from the pantry, including frozen meat and fresh vegetables.

 

"I am so thankful for this place, and the people here are so kind," said Tabitha.  "The first time I visited the pantry, I couldn't believe how healthy and fresh the food is.  As a mom, it's an incredible feeling to give my children the nourishing foods they need."

 

Thank you for your donation to your Foodbank, and for helping families in our community just like Tabitha and Elijah's have nourishing meals to share."
