Ukiah Food Bank Fund Drive reaches $109,895

The Ukiah Daily Journal’s 38th Annual Holiday Food Bank Fund Drive to help support Ukiah’s Food Bank will continue through the end of the year.

Each year we host this drive to keep the Food Bank open, the lights on, the refrigerators running and the van on the road. The Food Bank is one of Ukiah’s critical local community services. It helps feed people in need and on fixed incomes, who otherwise might not have enough money to put food on the table – people like our local seniors, veterans, disabled and working families.

    We have always been grateful for the generosity of this community during our annual drive. We were again hoping to raise $100,000 for the Food Bank Fund, a goal which has now been exceeded. Every dollar raised is appreciated, and, as we do each year, we will continue the fund drive through the end of the year.

    The most recent donations include:

    Annie Mousse, $2,000; Chevalier Vineyard Management, Inc. (In memory of Peter Chevalier, Sr.), $1,000; Frank & Denise Rakes, $500; Dave Fatch, $400; Fred & Lois Schaer, $300; Dale Harrison, $250; Larry Olson & Susan Schmirl, $200; Leslie & Margaret Ridgway, $200; John & Jeanette Speka, $150; Anonymous, $100; Anonymous, $100; Jane & Clinton Kelley, $100; Joel Levine & Eileen Mitro, $100; Kenneth & Karla Koch, $100; Menton Builders, Inc., $100; Marc D. Levine & S. Margo Frank, $100; Peggy Backup, $75; Jeaneen Chapes, $50.

    Today’s total: $5,825

    Grand total: $109,895

    As we do each year, we will publish the names of all donors, unless anonymity is requested, as our way of thanking you for helping reach our goal. To donate to the Holiday Food Bank Fund Drive, send your checks made out to Ford Street Project, 139 Ford St, Ukiah, CA  95482. Or, visit their website at www.fordstreet.org.
