The WKVI food drives held in early December resulted in community members providing a plethora of goods to Community Services of Starke County and Pulaski County Human Services.
Community Services of Starke County Executive Director Charmaine Dunkel said that more than 700 pounds of food was donated at the Five Star site. They also received about $108 in cash donations and a $500 gift certificate for the food pantry.
Pulaski County Human Services representatives shared that nine carts of food were donated at the Sanders Foods site in Winamac. They also received $1,200 in cash and credit donations. Sanders donated credit to the organization to allow them to buy goods from the store in the future.
Much appreciation goes out to everyone who pitched in to help out these local charitable organizations. You can find out more ways to provide assistance to your community by following the links below:
