Community Outreach Work Day at Food Bank

Nine volunteers and friends of the HGS worked Saturday, November 1, 2008, at the Montgomery County Food Bank in Conroe Texas. They sorted and packed 4,000 pounds of canned and dry goods for future distribution to charities, food kitchens and food pantries. This Food Bank distributes over one million pounds of goods a year, of which 60% goes to families with dependent children.

Upcoming Community Outreach events include the Christmas Bike Build at Reliant Center (with Elves and Moore) and Tree Planting Day in January.  Specific dates for both will be announced shortly.
