Turkey Drive response 'overwhelming'
Published 4:32 pm Wednesday, December 11, 2013
Dear Editor,
The Tonasket Food Bank would like to take this opportunity to thank all the churches, community organizations, and individuals who contributed to our recent “turkey drive.” Your responses were overwhelming!
We are still in the organizational stages of taking over the reigns after losing Jack and Nora Gavin’s outstanding 20 plus year leadership. Please be patient with us as we do so.
Your donations are greatly appreciated, and are the reason we can have a Tonasket Food Bank!
