Community steps up to meet increasing need

Dear Editor:

In the Dec. 28 edition Jason Atchley wrote to say thank you to all the citizens of Delta County saying that their generosity is remarkable. I am writing to strongly support what he said and to again thank all the citizens of Delta County for their outstanding support of the Delta Food Pantry.

The Delta Food Pantry had an increase of more than 25 percent in its requests for emergency food this past year than in the previous busy year of 2010 and because the community got behind us so well this year we were able to meet all the requests with minimal problems. Delta Food Pantry has a new telephone #: 252-6452 and people wishing to volunteer their time to assist us in our efforts should call and leave a message with the secretary.

Dr. C. Marvin Cox

Financial Secretary
