Sertoma Club of Springfield Conducts Successful Food Drive

The Sertoma Club of Springfield completed its second annual food drive in August, helping to meet the needs of the almost 25,000 people in Sangamon County who are hungry. Food/pantry items and cash donations were collected at Club meetings during the summer months. Two hundred food and pantry items from the drive were donated to the Grant Middle School Micro Pantry and Grace Lutheran Church food pantry. Cash donations of $500 were given to the Central Illinois Food bank and the Grace Lutheran Church food pantry. 

Thanks to the generosity of members, the Club's food drive goals were exceeded, and food insecurity in the area was reduced during the summer months. ###
