Daily Bulletin May 20, 2019

Students:
 
A big thank you from the ASP Odyssey Team! We have received a tremendous amount of support as we prepare for our competition in Michigan next week. A special thanks to Higgins Diggins Lions Club, Parents and Teachers for Magnolia, and Roger White for your generous donations. And of course a huge thanks to our parents, for helping us pull off almost ten fundraisers in just six weeks, and to all of you who showed up to support us at these events.  We earned enough to cover almost the entire cost of our trip. We couldn't have done this without the community effort! Thank you!

Saturday, June 8th, will be the next United Way Food Access Saturday. The Food Access Saturday program was originally created to help working individuals & families who need help putting food on their table, but are unable to pick up food at local food distributions during the week. Since it began, the program has grown to encompass a larger population; welcoming others to the table. Through the Food Access Saturday program, anyone who needs food can pick up healthy groceries, including fresh produce. The program is open to all Nevada County residents who cannot make it to other food distributions Monday through Friday. United Way of Nevada County, in partnership with Interfaith Food Ministry (IFM) distributes food on the second Saturday of each month. Since its inception, nearly 3800 bags of food have been distributed to more than 1700 individuals and families.

United Way of Nevada County strives to assure individuals and families in Nevada County are able to meet their basic need for food, emergency shelter and access to health care. The distributions take place at 440 Henderson Street, in Grass Valley, from 10am-noon on the 2nd Saturday of each month. For more information contact United Way at 274-8111 or [email protected].
