As we near Martin Luther King Day, we recall his words and honor him through our service. "Life's most persistent and urgent question is: what are you doing for others?" MLK, Jr.
In 2009 the Hoosier Hills Food Bank distributed more than 3 million pounds of food, up 82% from 2006. Herald-Times, 12/31/09
This MLK Day, Volunteers for Change is making it easy to do for others. We are hosting a Community Canvass for Hoosier Hills Food Bank:Monday, January 18th, arrive between 1:00 - 2:00 pmRachael's Cafe: 300 E. 3rd St. (between Lincoln & Grant) We will have everything you need and will be working in teams. You can go door to door or you can provide transportation and a warm vehicle. This is a family friendly activity! After the canvass, patronize a local business and hang out with us at Rachael's. Enjoy soup, sandwiches, and hot chocolate (made with milk and chocolate chips). Plenty of free parking available: Rachael's lot; Monroe County Democratic Party lot (3rd & Grant); street parking on Grant & Lincoln (by 3rd St. Park).
Note: This is not an endorsement, just an announcement. I would recommend an adult accompany you if you are going to be canvassing a neighborhood. For more info, contact Volunteers For Change. I imagine you can do this through this website:
