Food Baskets Help Families During The Holiday Season
Eddie Pierson fills Christmas food baskets in preparation for the yearly distribution to families and individuals.
Oskaloosa, Iowa – Budgets can be very tight at any time, but when you add in the stress of Christmas and trying to make ends meet during COVID-19, having a bit of help can be just what many families need.
The Oskaloosa Rotary has helped to organize the program since the Human Resource Council disbanded in 2010.
Over 5 tons of food, with a bill reaching into the tens of thousands, the Rotary reaches out to the business community each year to help cover the cost of the program.
