Holiday Food Baskets

Several business organizations - notably Covanta Energy, IBM, and Lockheed Martin - churches, and other donate packed holyda baskets, and many people donate frozen turkeys. These are supplemented, as appropriate, by food from our pantry. The Monocacy Lions Club deserves special recognition for not only donating but also delivering many holiday baskets. Selby's Market has been invaluable in assisting local efforts.

Several local churches, Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops, Monocacy Lions Club, John Poole Leo's Club, Knights of Columbus, and others ask us for assignment of familiies which they can "adopt" for holiday giving, or they specify the families they wish to serve.

Holiday dinners were provided through this program to 275 families in 2005.
