This year’s Thanksgiving food distribution was a great success with over 185 turkeys and food being furnished. Thank you, Cameron Rotary Club, for helping us out!
Thank you, Cameron Lions Club, for coordinating and getting food to donate for this holiday season. Thank you, students and staff of Cameron ISD, for donating canned foods and boxed food. You all made a difference in our community. Several members of our board of directors joined too.
As we prepare for Christmas, we are especially in need of food donations including canned sweet potatoes, cereal, canned pumpkin and canned corn or green beans. Also, cornbread mixes, stuffing mixes, cake mixes, cake frosting, evaporated milk, canned cranberry sauce and chicken broth. The store will furnish a ham and carton of eggs along with the above-mentioned food this Christmas, as well.
If you choose, you can mail a tax-deductible donation to 300 South Houston Street, Cameron, Texas 76520 or come by the Thrift Shop which is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) community-based organization which serves all citizens of the area.
