Eighth-graders help food bank with sweet treats

Michael and Meaghan’s mother and older sister came into the Elk Grove Food Bank Services office to tell us about their fundraising activities in Wilton. For their eighth-grade confirmation project at St. Vincent De Paul, Michael and Meaghan decided to do some fundraising for Elk Grove Food Bank Services.

The enterprising duo baked cookies and sold them at Dillard Store. They received support for their efforts from store management and from the Wilton community. They sold out in a couple of hours and raised $60.02 with help from the kindhearted people in Wilton.

With this success, Michael and Meaghan plan on more cookie sales in the future. Keep an eye out for them. I heard that the oatmeal raisin cookies are really great.

Thank you, Michael and Meaghan, for raising money to help your local food bank.
