2016

Our Knights of Columbus council 10502 will be starting a new program we have named "Knights Helping Neighbors".  The following is how the program will work.


Every Thursday starting August 11th and running until September 29th the Knights will have a cart parked on the east end parking lot at our church from 3PM until  7PM.  Excess fruits and vegetables from area gardens will be accepted and then transported to the Palmyra Caring Cupboard on Friday morning.

The committee is getting signage and flyers ready for the kickoff of the program.  What we need are volunteers to be at the trailer from a little before the 3PM start time until the Thursday drop off time is over at 7PM.  The committee chose the time schedule to both enable a convenient time for the dropping off of the fruits and vegetables and also to allow time for our K of C members to get involved in the program.  

We are looking for volunteers to fill the time slots for both August and September.  Anyone willing to volunteer please respond to this email                NLT August 9th with the names, number of volunteers (it certainly can be a family group) who would be willing to volunteer to be at the trailer to accept donations.  Of course if you find time after that date please contact me and we can fit you in.  No maximum number of volunteers has been set so it can be a good time getting together and also help the community.   Your time spent there also goes toward our volunteer hours total of course. You can be there for a few hours or the whole time--- your choice.  I will set up a schedule and fill it with those who volunteer.  Please leave a cell phone and home phone number in your response so I can contact you in case of a change due to weather or other issues.

Myself or another committee member or brother Knight will retrieve the trailer and get it to the Caring Cupboard Friday morning. Any questions please email me or call me at 570-220-3949
