Community Action Senior Nutrition receives donation from Trinity Episcopal Church

[July 26, 2013]  Trinity Episcopal Church recently presented a $1,250 donation to Community Action's Apple of My Heart Senior Nutrition program.

The Rev. Mark Evans presented the donation to Jacob Sexton, Community Action's executive director, at the Community Action Partnership corporate office in Lincoln.

The funds will be used to supply meals for seniors in Logan and Mason counties who depend on the nutritious, balanced meals provided by the program. The program provides over 30,000 meals to local seniors each year.

According to the Rev. Evans, members of the church were asked to suggest organizations they would like to include in their outreach. Community Action's Senior Nutrition program and Habitat for Humanity were both selected to be local recipients of Trinity Episcopal's generosity.

The church also provided assistance to a diocese in Peru that they have formed a relationship with over the years, allowing them to spread their outreach globally as well as locally.

If you or your organization would like to donate to the Apple of My Heart Senior Nutrition, or any of Community Action's other programs, call 217-732-2159.

Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois provides programs and services in Logan, Mason, DeWitt, Piatt, Menard and Fulton counties. For more information, visit www.capcil.org.
