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.

quickly becoming our most popular fundraiser. And

Thank you very much to the Event Sponsors and to
all of the Table Sponsors. Your generosity made
this a very successful event.

terrific job coordinating the "Euclid High School Silent

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.
