Local Child Raises Money for Linn Benton Food Share

On Thursday, October 11, six-year-old Keira Jackson came by the Linn Benton Food Share office with a donation. She explained that her family’s apple tree produced a bumper crop of apples this year – way more than they could use. Keira and her mother, Dixie, decided to set up a fruit stand so Keira could sell the apples.




They decided the money would go to charity – and selected Linn Benton Food Share to receive the proceeds. Keira was excited to present Food Share with a check for $80 from her fruit stand efforts. Way to go, Keira!

Welcome to CSC's blog and e-newsletter!

These communications tools can be used to make announcements, acknowledge donors and volunteers, post videos and slideshows–whatever we want to share with our online community.

There are 3 ways to deliver info to stakeholders:

  1. The blog itself, which can be linked to our current website
  2. Email news blasts (blog articles sent via email as eNewsletters)
  3. RSS Feed (subscribers read in Google Reader or other feed reader, can also send posts to Facebook and Twitter)
We're excited about these communication tools and look forward to both your input and feedback for continuing improvement and positive information-sharing.

If you have agency/program information you'd like posted on this blog, please send full text and/or photos and videos, ideas, or suggestions to Janet Hessel and she will take the next steps.

Enjoy!
