Summer Community Service Canned & Perishable Foods Drive




Summer is here, but for too many families, this marks the start of a long, hot and hungry school break. Texas Farm Bureau of Atascosa County has asked us to partner with them and stamp out Hunger in Atascosa County. The food drive will benefit Christian Assistance Ministries (C.A.M.). Atascosa 4-H members, friends, and families are being asked to help by donating items to stock the pantry and distribute amongst needy families. Think…if every member donates just one item we would have over 300 items right off the bat. Wow! So start checking your shelves for items such as dried fruit, peanut butter, canned salmon, low-sodium canned vegetables and whole grains and stop by the Extension Office in Leming soon! You can also bring them with you to the Atascosa County 4-H Banquet held on Friday, August 3 or drop them off in Jourdanton at the Atascosa County Farm Bureau Office.
