This has been a week of being in between, as we have found ourselves reminiscing over newly created holiday memories and getting excited about ringing in a new year.

Many of our recipients are feeling the impact of being in between, too.  Their family members visiting from far away will soon be heading home.  They may be stretching their pennies for a few more days until their Social Security checks arrive.  Some of them may be struggling to feed the young grandchildren they are babysitting until school starts again.

This week, we sent out a 12 pound bag of groceries to each of our recipients to address the challenges of being in between at this time of year.  Each bag includes peanut buttery and jelly, canned vegetables, fruit, a pre-cooked canned ham and other staples to supplement the daily nutrition our recipients receive through each meal we deliver.  The bag is just one more way that we're working to end senior hunger in our community.
