Bonnie Johnson
With cold months around the corner, I would like to let people know about a great program Moline Township call, “We Care.” If you know someone in the Moline Township that is in need of toiletries, socks, scarfs, gloves, etc., please contact our office at 309-764-3558 for more information. We also have emergency blankets available while supplies last. Moline Township and the MAC participated in a Moline Township community program for Logan school, “Trunk or Treat”. Due to the generosity of MAC members and staff we had an abundance of candy to hand out to the Trunk or Treaters. Thank you to all who attended our craft supply and bake sale; all proceeds went to the Senior Center for future activities and programs. We still have some craft supply items left for purchase; feel free to stop by while supplies last.
Kind Regards
