The Durango Food Bank
“Thank you very much!”
These are words I hear every time I deliver our CtK food donations to the Durango Food Bank. During 2019, we donated 634 lbs. of food items! That translates into approximately 551 meals for our La Plata County neighbors. WOW!! In addition to food items, CtK’ers contributed
$319 during January’s Noisy Offering campaign for the Food Bank. Your kindness and generosity is a great help throughout the year and so appreciated by those in need.
Currently the Food Bank is in need of canned vegetables, fruits, and soups, canned meats, canned and dry beans, bagged and boxed rice, and breakfast items.
Thank you very much for your thoughtfulness and generosity; your continued support means so much to so many.
