Crawfordsville Kiwanians Continue to Support Nourish Program at Montgomery County Youth Service Bureau

The Crawfordsville Kiwanians have once again demonstrated their commitment to helping the Montgomery County Youth Service Bureau’s Nourish Program by unloading the monthly food delivery.

The Nourish Program is a vital initiative that provides much-needed food to families in Montgomery County who are facing food insecurity. The program is run by the Montgomery County Youth Service Bureau, a non-profit organization that provides a range of services to young people and families in the area.The Crawfordsville Kiwanians have been strong supporters of the Nourish Program for several years, and their monthly efforts to unload the food delivery are a key part of the program’s success. The Kiwanians work tirelessly to ensure that the food is safely unloaded and stored, ready to be distributed to those who need it most.

“Food insecurity is a serious issue in our community, and we are proud to support the Nourish Program and the important work it does,” said a spokesperson for the Crawfordsville Kiwanians. “We believe that everyone should have access to healthy, nutritious food, and we will continue to support this program for as long as it’s needed.”

The Crawfordsville Kiwanians are a local chapter of the global service organization Kiwanis International, which is dedicated to improving the lives of children and families through service projects and fundraising efforts. The chapter has been active in the Crawfordsville community for over 100 years, and their contributions to the Nourish Program are just one example of their commitment to making a difference.

The Montgomery County Youth Service Bureau and the Nourish Program are grateful for the continued support of the Crawfordsville Kiwanians and all those who have contributed to this important initiative.
