The Kiwanis Club of Statesboro has once again demonstrated its unwavering commitment to supporting the local community by donating to the Statesboro Food Bank. This contribution comes at a critical time as the holiday season heightens the need for food assistance in the area.
This donation will help the Statesboro Food Bank purchase essential items to stock its shelves, ensuring that families in need have access to nutritious meals. The funds will also support the organization's programs aimed at addressing food insecurity in the region.
“Serving the children and families in our community is at the heart of everything we do,” said Marilyn Darrell, President of the Kiwanis Club of Statesboro. “We are proud to partner with the Statesboro Food Bank to help ensure no one in our community goes hungry, especially during this season of giving.”
The Statesboro Food Bank serves hundreds of individuals and families each month, providing a vital lifeline to those facing economic hardship. According to Sheila Stewart-Leach, Executive Director of the Statesboro Food Bank, the Kiwanis Club’s donation will have a significant impact on their ability to meet the growing demand.
As part of the donation presentation, Stewart-Leach gave the Kiwanis Club President and Chris Wiggins, Division 17 Lt. Governor, a guided tour of the food bank facility. The tour highlighted the organization’s day-to-day operations, storage capabilities, and the direct impact of donations on the community.
The Kiwanis Club of Statesboro has a long history of community involvement, including organizing service projects, hosting fundraisers, and supporting local initiatives that benefit children and families.
