DONATIONS SOUGHT FOR MEALS PROGRAM
A new hot meals program will begin soon in Radford at the Church of God in Christ and donations are needed to help make it happen.
Volunteers have so far raised about $2,700 to help start the Radford-Fairlawn Daily Bread, which will serve free meals five days a week. Another $12,000 is needed for renovations and to buy used equipment, such as a refrigerator, freezer, oven and dishwasher.
Much of the food will be donated, but money also is needed to help stock the shelves.
"Every day we get more money," said Maureen Weyer, co-chairman of the meals program. "This will happen and we're getting closer."
Because the Daily Bread has not yet received non-profit status, donations may be sent in the organization's name to the Presbyterian Church of Radford, 201 Fourth St., Radford, Va. 24141 or call Weyer at 639-2099 for information on how to volunteer.
