Help Hilary Make the Polar Plunge

Post by medic5740 »

The Beaver Island Food Pantry is raising funds, but due to COVID-19 virus there will be no Polar Plunge this year. However, if we can raise $5000.00 in donations, Hilary Palmer will do the Polar Plunge on her own. So let's see if we can meet Hilary's goal. You can donate in two ways. One is to use PayPal at the following link:

http://beaverislandnews.com/Donation%20Page.html

Another is to send a check made out to the Food Pantry to the Beaver Island Christian Church, P.O. 21, Beaver Island, MIchigan 49782

When do we have to meet the donations? We did some, but keep us posted as to the totals.

If the goal is met, Hilary will be taking the plunge Thursday morning at 11:00 in Charlevoix. I'm guessing everyone needs to donate by midnight Wednesday.
