The Milan Interfaith Food Pantry would like to recognize the generosity of our community during the government shut down and the holiday season has been phenomenal. The donations received to help with food insecurity for our neighbors are so much appreciated. We would like to take this opportunity to show our appreciation to the following: Green City United Methodist Church, Milan United Methodist Church, Kent Veterinary Clinic, Yellow Creek Baptist Church, Milan Elks Lodge, Smithfield, Simmons Animal Nutrition Plant, First Interstate Bank, Green City Ministerial Alliance, First Baptist Church of Milan, First Baptist Church of Green City, St. Mary’s Catholic Church, Green City Presbyterian Church, Milan Rebecca’s, Milan C-2 Student Council, North Central MO. Ham Radio Operators Group, Ray Healy Memorial, Caring Coop, Church Women United, Connection Church of Green City and the many individuals who donated food or money. We are thankful for the many volunteers and family who donated their precious time to help out with unloading, sorting, stacking, counting, making carts and even cleaning up. We appreciate greatly the Milan C-2 FBLA group for committing time almost monthly to help us with the distribution and most recently North Central Mo. Electric Coop. for helping us out with some wiring needs. We don’t intend to leave anyone out, so I pray I haven’t forgotten to include anyone here. We could not exist without our local support and volunteers and your impact on the pantry has been tremendous for the Milan Interfaith Food Pantry. May God richly bless you all!!
