Community reaches out to lend a hand
It doesn't seem like much but when your out of work or down on your luck it really comes in handy, especially during the holdiay season.
About tweny some years ago the Starbuck Jaycees put together a project that was aimed at lending a hand to those folks in the area that for one reason or another found it difficult to make ends meet let alone go out and spend extra for Christmas gifts, especially for the kids. Not too many yeas after the project got so big that the Jaycees invited the VFW Post #4582 to help sponsor and distribute toys and food to those who needed it.
In the years that have followed and up to the present day thousands have been served and an interesting thing for a many of those families who were served in the past have come out to help when times have been better for them.
The Minnewaska Jaycees and the VFW Post #4582 want to thank all those who have contributed gifts and funds to this project
