Elaine Gale, Barbara Wainwright: Helping Hands helped Salvation Army feed, help families
The “Helping Hands at Christmas” committee, and the Salvation Army Officers and Board Members would like to thank everyone who gave so generously to the “Helping Hands” program this year. The final total of this year’s donations is $52,425. This is highest since 2010.
With all of your help, we were able to assist 70 families with pressing needs, as well as fund 300 food baskets which were distributed by the local Salvation Army Corps.
We thank the Merced Sun-Star for its part in this program, and for its great cooperation. On behalf of the Salvation Army officers and board members, we say thank you, thank you! God bless you, every one,
Elaine Gale, chairman and Barbara Wainwright, Salvation Army, Merced
