The Taylorville Food Pantry will be receiving much needed donations of non-perishable food and money through the Taylorville Kiwanis Club’s fourth drive-thru donation day of 2025. It took place in front of our Taylorville studios on Saturday. Kiwanis member Eric Kahle supervised the table and accepted donations.
Saturday’s collection effort took place amid temperatures which approached 90°F (32°C). The donation drive is set up such that interested donors can stay in their car, making for an easy process.
The Taylorville Kiwanis Club has held these donation drives over a number of years. Kahle has been a part of these efforts and says he has seen the need for food donations fluctuate in that time.
This was the last drive-thru donation day for July. Two more donation days will take place; they are scheduled for September 13 and 27.
The Taylorville Food Pantry, the Taylorville Kiwanis Club, and The Miller Media group thank all those who contributed to the drive-thru donation day.
Eric Kahle appeared as a guest on the Retro Request Show on Genuine Country 94.3 WMKR and on the Saturday Request Show on Groovy 97.3 WRAN.
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.
