Dear Editor,
Another year has zipped by and the Nelson Garrettsville Community Cupboard would like to express sincere thanks to all those who donated food, funds and time this past year.
We are thankful to everyone who attended, sponsored or donated to our Farm to Table Nibble & Sip annual event. The weather cooperated and it was a great success! Our continued thanks to the AGX Corporation of Twinsburg for their ongoing support. The many pallets of paper goods they have sent us over the years are a huge help to our clients. Also, sincere gratitude to Ellerhorst Russell Insurance for donating a 4H hog from the Portage County Fair, Save-a-Lot Stores for their Bags for a Brighter Future drive and to IGA for their Check Out Hunger register program and strong support through the years.
We extend a special shout out to everyone who held food drives for the Cupboard in 2017. Especially Facet Salon, G-Plex, St. Joseph’s Winery, Silver Creek Garden Club, State Farm Insurance, Garrettsville Police Department, Daisy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts and JAG Elementary and Middle School students and faculty. The overwhelming amount of food collected is very much appreciated and will help so many in need.
We are especially grateful for our wonderful group of volunteers who give so selflessly of their time and hard work to make the Cupboard a reality. Without them, we would not be able to sustain our mission to Shut The Door On Hunger in our community.
Wishing you and yours all the best for 2018!
With profound gratitude,
Nelson Garrettsville Community Cupboard
