‘Alvina's Free Summer Lunches’, hosted by The Carpenter’s Cup Christian Book and Gift store is again hosting this lunch program for children in our community. Your donations provide the children a free lunch between June 2nd and August 8th.
The Carpenters Cup plans to deliver 50 lunches to the square and
to the big park (just north of the pool), Monday through Friday.
For this to be successful, they need volunteers to deliver the
meals to the Park daily and help in the kitchen daily to prepare the sack
lunches.
The updated list includes chips, cookies and fruit cups.
And, of course, monetary donations are always appreciated!
A complete list of items needed can be found on the Carpenter’s
Cup Facebook page.
They will use any snack donations to put into the bags. Last
year, they occasionally got beef sticks, rice krispies treats, Cuties, or
apples, drinks, granola bars, peanut butter crackers, and many other “snackie
items” to throw into the lunch bags.
‘Alvina’s Summer Lunch’ program needs volunteers to deliver the lunches
to the square and to the park.
Volunteers are needed in the Carpenters Cup kitchen to make
sandwiches and put the lunches together. You can volunteer as much or as little
as you can. General hours are from 10am until about 1:30PM. Maybe you have
teenagers that need community service for school or to go on a college
application.
If this summer lunch program is not successful they won't be
able to offer lunches to the many children in the area in need.
This is a big undertaking and commitment, so if you have
questions, or want to sign up as a volunteer, call 660-679-3333. Donations can
be delivered to the Carpenters Cup, 102 S. Bishop
Street in Butler.
