A strong supporter of 4-H, 1st Source was pleased to join Sikora Farms LLC and Kankakee Valley REMC in purchasing a hog at a record price and donating the meat to Rose Grey Food Pantry in Valparaiso.
Gloria McKown, Amy Welkie and Catherine Langford from 1st Source delivered the fresh meat and more than 250 canned/boxed food items to the food pantry to be shared with local families in need.
Rose Grey Food Pantry, in operation since 1996, is staffed with volunteers from area churches, the Valparaiso University Work Study programs, and others from around the community. At this location alone, Rose Grey has assisted up to 32 families in one day.
