Thank you to Cook County News Herald for this free ad.
First distribution is May 5th at the Birch Grove Center in Tofte. Volunteers, please come by 3:15 p.m. if possible. The distribution should begin by 5:15pm -6:45 p.m. The suggested donation is $25.00 per share. If this is difficult to afford, please know that we have 7 gracious West Enders that have donated a share. Cliff/Nancy Iverson, Sandy/Jack McHugh, Sarah Dahle, Jeff Dillehay, Gordon Engstrom, Sarah Lattin and Don Fehr.
This will be a drive through distribution. My apologies if the first few times are a little chaotic. Hang in there, we’ll get it right.
If you would like to sign-up for a share or volunteer, please text or email me and I’ll put your name on the list. We would like the count to be as accurate as possible. msbb@boreal.org or text 370-1015.
This is only the first step for the West End. We would like to start a food shelf, work with AEOA and plan to do some free community & foreign worker dinners. See you there!
