Team members from Alpena Alcona Area Credit Union recently volunteered their time to package food for Feeding Kids Ministries.
The program assists elementary, junior high and high school-age students each week throughout the school year. Every Friday, a gallon-size bag of non-perishable food is placed in the student’s backpack to assist less fortunate families with food for their child over the weekend. With the generosity of the community, the program has been able to expand and help families during the summer months as well.
