As members of the Assistance Center of Towson Churches, we agree to help
provide Thanksgiving baskets to less fortunate families in the area. Each family
receives a food basket and a certificate to purchase perishables. Thisyear
Loch Raven will be collecting money to purchase the certificates. To make a
donation use the envelopes in the church pews.
We collected donations
from October 23 to November 13
. Last year 2,800 families in Baltimore City and
County received baskets.  As always, thanks for your generosity.
