The Food Bank of East Alabama was on the receiving end of a $5,125 Grant from the Charter Foundation. Money will be used to support the backpack program and provide services for an additional 65 children in the upcoming school year. The program provides nutritious foods for kids to take home for the weekend each Friday. Pictured is Lee County President of CharterBank Linda Drummond presenting the check to Martha Henk, Executive Director of the Food Bank.
