Sharing with the Shepherd

Posted by C. Clyde Jones

Our club has donated around $6,000 in cup money to Shepherd's Crossing, beginning in 2003. Three members have matched the cup money each year, resulting in more than $23,000 in nine years. That has paid the rent or utility bills for hundreds of Riley County families who couldn't cover their bills and still buy food or medicine.

Once again, in 2012, the Board has designated Shepherd's Crossing to receive the cup money in February. Even though our winter weather has been mild, there is still a high demand for rent and utility assistance. As Development Officer for Shepherd's Crossing, I thank you in advance for your generosity.
