The Rockaway Lions Club will be providing Thanksgiving and Christmas Dinner fixings. Fresh fruits and vegetables, canned goods, and of course a turkey are provided to special families in the School District 56 area. The Lions are a wonderful group of people doing this work.. More info on Rockaway Beach Lions can be found here: e-clubhouse.org-sites/rockaway/page-6.php.
Also in Rockaway Beach is the Meals for Seniors, Inc. program. This organization is open every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday in the meeting hall next to the Catholic Church. Meals are also delivered to clients. A hot meal can be had for just a $4 donation, but you can still join them for lunch even if you don’t have the $4. Just $24 will pay for six hot and nutritious meals. $96 will serve that senior for a month. See more at mealsforseniorsrockawaybeach.org.
The North County Food Bank is in Wheeler. Financial donations enable them to purchase wholesome food at wholesale prices from the Oregon Food Bank, local grocers, and other sources. With inflation hitting all of us, it is hitting the NCFB and their ability to buy food. Please help them out. More info www.northtillamookcountyfoodbank.org/
Nehalem Senior Lunches are provided at the Nehalem Bay United Methodist Church in Nehalem on Tuesday and Thursday. Lunches are also delivered. Again, sometimes lunch and a personal touch are what people need.
Still time to help the Methodist Church in Nehalem with all their outreach projects: Lunches for kids during the school break, their food and clothing bank, and their Senior lunch Program on Tuesday and Thursday. They also deliver lunches. Mark on your check which program you want to support.
Please help as much as you can and thanks to you all.
