The Taylorville Kiwanis Club was one of many that made monetary donations to the 4th annual “Freedom Tree” Community Food Drive sponsored by the Taylorville Community Credit Union, that ended July 13th.

The Kiwanis Club made the monetary donation as part of fulfilling its mission of improving the lives of children and youth in the Taylorville community.

The T-C-C-U program has increased in donations each of the 4 years it's been in place.
