Fellow Community Outreach Members,
Your dedication to Community Outreach’s mission produced outstanding results for 2021 for our program to end on a generous and beautiful high note. In the middle of busy holiday season ,Outreach ladies and wonderful spouses continued to volunteer onsite at Our Daily Bread and Denton Community Food Bank to provide much needed services during these hectic days for those in need.
Friends of the Family - You adopted 81 children and 16 mothers and provided them with necessities
and fun gifts to make their Christmas Merry!
Our Daily Bread - Christmas week, Community Outreach ladies baked over 1000 cookies and donated Christmas tins for those delicious cookies. A happy event took place at Lynn Teeling’s to fill the tins with homemade cookies, wrap up mugs for clients and sign Christmas cards to bring those at Deluxe Inn holiday cheer. ODB did a great job along with beautiful weather to make the lunch a festive event . THANK YOU all for your donations and time for RRWC to participate on this worthwhile day.
We ended 2021 on a high note and we are in process to complete 14 pallets for Welcome Home in January.
We are a group in motion.
A special Thank You to Nanci Odom for her leadership in the various charity projects all year for us to
provide help and support to RRWC’s charities.
Nanci also provides a fun atmosphere for RRWC ladies to get to know one another and work together for these great results.
Please plan to attend Community Outreach Meeting and bring your friends as we look ahead
to 2022 projects and activities to support RRWC charities.
