Hi John,
The shutdown continues, and there’s no telling when it will end.
The military is scheduled to stop being paid on October 15th, and thousands of other federal workers have already been furloughed.
Already-strapped area food banks are bracing for an influx of people who will need more assistance as the shutdown continues.
If Bill Huizenga and Congressional Republicans won’t do their jobs and end the shutdown, then it’s on us to take care of our communities.
If you’re in a position to help out, please consider making a food or cash donation to a food bank in our area:
- Kalamazoo Loaves and Fishes
- Kalamazoo Salvation Army
- Twelve Baskets Food Pantry
- South Michigan Foodbank
Also in our area, are United Way of Southwest Michigan. To find a foodbank near you, you can go to https://www.feedingamerica.org/find-your-local-foodbank.
Thank you – we’re all in this together.
– Jessica
