Greetings to you all,
We hope this letter finds everyone well. With all of the difficulties we have faced over the past year we still consider ourselves blessed in so many ways. We thank God that he brought us through every challenge that presented itself and provided for every need that we faced. While we saw many changes this past year, the one thing that stood constant was the mission of the Outreach Community Center. That would have never been possible if not for the support of our communities. You have stood beside us and enabled us to continue the work of serving those in need.
With everything that has happened, we could not be more excited to begin the preparations for our 11th annual “Back to School Bash”. In past years, we have reached out to those in our communities and have been overwhelmed by the support of monetary donations and school supplies that have been collected in support of this event. We have always been so blessed and amazed by the number of those in our communities who want to be a part of this great event.
This year on Friday, August 6th at 5:00pm, the Outreach Community Center will be holding this annual event. It will be held at the Scott County Fairgrounds to accommodate the number of children we serve. Each year this event has grown in numbers, with last year’s numbers reaching over 367 children.
During the month of July, we are asking local businesses, churches and individuals in our communities to help with this effort. By doing so, together we hope to be able to meet this year’s needs. All items collected or any monetary donations given need to be at the Outreach Community Center by Friday, July 23rd. If you have any questions regarding what type of school supplies are needed, please call 217-883-0359.
As always thank you so much for joining us in this mission.
Sincerely,
Kenny and Marsha Mayner
And the Board Members of the Outreach Community Center
