Headlining AADC Meeting on March 5 are Two Hot Topics:

Supporting Food Banks plus Monitoring School Board Meetings

***Auburn Interfaith Food Closet***

Across America, including Auburn, there are people whose lives are impacted by events beyond their control.  It may be illness, mental instability, or traumatic crises.  People experiencing life changing events may rely on government services to survive. In fact, that is a key purpose of government, to care for people when they are unable to care for themselves. Due to the recent pullback of federal support, the homeless and those who suffer from food insecurity need assistance.

On March 5th at our General Meeting, we have the honor of hosting Auburn Interfaith

Food Closet, Inc. (AIFC).  AIFC is a local organization that provides access to nutritious food to people in need.  AFIC will present to us the impact of their work, thanks to generous donations within our community.  Their mission is to provide “nutritious food to those in need, preserving their dignity and encouraging self-reliance.”

We are asking attendees to consider donating food items or checks at our March 5th meeting.  Items in need are: canned meat or tuna, canned fruit, canned vegetables, diced tomatoes, peanut butter, and soup. A complete list of items can be found on their website at:  https://auburnfoodcloset.org

***Public School Strong***

AADC will also welcome Public School Strong members Annie Bowler and Carol Koons, who will talk about the role of school boards in making major policy decisions that directly impact what and how our children are taught.  Annie and Carol are coordinators with Public School Strong, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that attends school board meetings and monitors trustee actions to ensure that they follow the law and act in the best interests of students.
