The Taylorville Food Pantry will be receiving much needed donations of non-perishable food and money through the Taylorville Kiwanis Club’s second drive-thru donation day of 2025. It took place in front of our Taylorville studios on Saturday. Kiwanis president Bill Assalley and member Sheryl Van Dyke manned the donation booth.
With school out for summer, kids who receive school meals at a low cost during the school year do not have that safety net. Assalley says this accentuates the need for contributions.
The first donation day of the year took place on May 17. There will be four more donation days. They are scheduled for July 12 and 26 along with September 13 and 27. The Kiwanis volunteers look to make donating as easy as possible for those wishing to give.
The Taylorville Food Pantry, the Taylorville Kiwanis Club, and The Miller Media group thank all those who contributed to the drive-thru donation day.
The Taylorville Kiwanis Club is part of global organization of volunteers dedicated to improving the world one child and one community at a time. Weekly meetings are held Tuesdays at noon at the Taylorville Moose Lodge. For information on the club, go to taylorvillekiwanis.com.
