The last few months
have been very busy for the Hunger Center. Due to an unstable
economy, we have seen our "new clients" increase by more than
20%. This means that we consistently serve more than 1100
people a month. Fortunately, we have some hard working people
and a lot of community support
helping us meet our rising cost of operation.

by hand. Thanks to all of you for donating the proceeds
of the Auction to the EHC. Your
time and talent was well
spent helping those in need.
