The weekend food program fundraiser recently held at the Capital Brewery was very successful. An anonymous donor matched $5,000 of the collected donations, so the six Middleton elementary schools will share about $16,000 in purchases from the Second Harvest Foodbank this year.
St. Bernard will hold a Snack Pack Blessings volunteer update meeting from 6:30-7:30 p.m., Sept. 12 in the parish center.
If you are interested in volunteering as a team leader, food shopper, driver or driver assistant, please try to attend the meeting. Food packing and delivery to Elm Lawn and Northside Schools will begin on Oct. 5.
