Thank You Lake Trust Credit Union!

Lake Trust Credit Union contacted me a few weeks ago inquiring about making a donation to the Victory Garden.  Last May they had a group come out and help with early planting and garden set up.  In the course of the day the group learned about hunger in Livingston County, and how the Hunger Council and the Garden Network have worked to eliminate hunger and improve access to nutritious food throughout our county.  Lake Trust Credit Union believes in the mission of the Victory Garden, and their foundation presented Gleaners Community Food Bank with a check for $2,500 dollars for the Victory Garden!

We are so thankful for their support!  This donation will help the Victory Garden reach our goal of harvesting 12,000 pounds of produce this year.
