LETTER: Student thanks community

I want to thank everyone for your support for “Help Me to Help Others.” It was really nice that you have helped others who needed it.
I want to thank all the people who gave me canned goods or put money in my box to buy groceries while I set up at IGA lobby. I want to thank Curtis from IGA, Lincoln Way, Carl Howell, Ronald Wright, Taylor Durham, Wrolen Pin Restaurant, Mrs. Pearman, Mrs. Akridge, Mrs. Cecil at my School and all the children at Hodgenville Elementary School for bringing all the stuff in.
Mr. Edwards’ class won the pizza party and the whole school collected more than 1,900 cans between Nov. 18 and Dec. 17. Thanks to Mona at Hometown Pizza for the pizza.
I want to thank my family for helping and my church, Mount Moriah Baptist Church, also my Aunt Gisela for buying me two turkeys and all the people that helped me.
It’s a lot of fun working for the Lord. I give all the glory to God. If you know anyone needing food, let my family know or if you want to help now, call me at 358-0460.
See you next year,
Gatlin Constant
