As Emmaus Rotary seeks new ways to help feed the hungry-- including planning for the summer as East Penn schools have 30% of students qualiying for free or reduced lunches-- remember our tried and true monthly food collection. THIS THURSDAY bring canned goods and staples to be collected at our regular morning meeting.
And if you are numbered among those who forgot to bring something from home, no problem...you can still contribute...drop a dollar bill or two in the rattan basket.
Thank you to all the Emmaus Rotarians who step up every month to support Bethel Bible Food PLUS Pantry, which is supported by other service organizations and ecumenically by area churches.
in Pennsylvania, 19% of children live in poverty. Their next meal is not assured especially on weekends, holidays and summers when there are no reduced or free school lunches.
