St Clair County Food Banc

Thank you for choosing The Food Bank December 1, 2020 in From Denise's Desk Harvest Time Newsletter I want to take a moment to personally thank you for your dedication to our hunger-relief efforts. Your support of our mission of Transforming Hunger into Hope means so much to everyone here at The Food Bank. Whether you have supported us for 15 years or a few weeks, we can’t thank you enough. You help ensure that our neighbors have something to eatduring the holidays and throu...ghout the year. Many of you have stepped up to help us meet the increased need this year, and we could not be more grateful for your compassion. Your continued commitment to Ozarks Food Harvest allows us to provide meals and a great deal of hope to neighbors across 28 counties in southwest Missouri. We couldn’t do this without you, and we thank you deeply for trusting us with your financial donations. With you on our side, we will continue to work to meet the need in the Ozarks. Through your support, we have provided millions of meals in 2020. Your monetary donations allow us to distribute nutritious food to 270 charitable partners across southwest Missouri. Our collective efforts make a huge impact on the lives of families experiencing hunger, and because of your kindness, someone will eat today. As 2020 comes to a close, I want to thank you again for choosing Ozarks Food Harvest. We hope you continue to support The Food Bank as we work toward ending hunger in the Ozarks. Thank you for caring for the community, and thank you for being a Hunger Hero!

I want to thank everyone that came to the food bank today for staying in their cars and staying back from the window when not wearing a mask. I know 1 person was a bit upset that we asked that he stand back from the window. The reason we are asking that people remain in their vehicles & have masks on if at the window is that if the volunteers there were to be exposed and have to quarantine... we'd have no way to get food to those that need it on Tuesdays. This was a policy we decided on last spring, and it's one that as we see such an increase in cases within the community, we really need to abide by. Thanks for your help and for your understanding.
