Polson Food Pantry's Great Opportunity!

The Polson Loaves and Fish Food Pantry has a great opportunity to capture significant "match" money from Town Pump - $5,000 to help support its food outreach activities and improve its facilities. The Pantry needs donations from individuals, businesses, and service groups to realize the "match" money that is being offered.

This program has already begun and runs through Nov. 30! Please make your tax deductable donations payable to: Polson Loaves & Fish Pantry. They may be mailed to 10 - 8th Avenue East, Polson, Montana 59860 or dropped off at the Pantry (same address) on Tuesday's or Friday's between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Checks may also be dropped off at the Town Pump on Hwy 93 in Polson.

As our country's economy slows down, more and more families are seeking emergency or supplemental food assistance from the Polson Food Pantry.

The Pantry recently served over 170 families in the month of September, with strictly volunteer personnel. What a wonderful and fulfilling way to "lend a helping hand" to those in our community who need some help! Won't you join me in making a donation to Polson Loaves and Fish Food Pantry!
