Our friends and neighbors in Central and Eastern Kentucky who are facing hunger have tough choices to make in December. The holidays add financial pressures, while the cold weather necessitates spending more on utilities and transportation than in warmer months. Combined with burdens caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, many families are finding that they need some extra help for the first time.
December offers a number of ways for you to assist the Food Bank in fighting hunger. This month, Mike tells us about Stuff Your Stocking – a silent auction filled with great holiday gift ideas – and a very special raffle for a flight of Pappy Van Winkle. We’re also offering our popular holiday card program again this year, and, of course, we’re right in the middle of the 2020 GoodGiving Challenge!
When this video was recorded, we had just started the Challenge with a $20,000 match pool provided by Peoples Exchange Bank. Your commitment to our work led to that match pool being completely secured in under six hours! While that match pool is now guaranteed to us because of you, a generous anonymous donor has stepped up to provide an additional $25,000 match pool for the rest of the Challenge. If you missed out on the first opportunity to double the impact of your gift, now is the time to take advantage of this second match opportunity. When you donate as part of the GoodGiving Challenge, your $1 becomes $2 – an amount that helps us provide 16 meals! Join the GoodGiving Challenge before it ends at 11:59 pm on Monday, December 7!
