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.
