A surprise visit made by HVAF Board Member Louise Loyd and her friend, Rita Sullivan, who had been collecting donations, couldn’t have come at a better time. The women delivered a truck filled with hygiene items just as our warehouse was running low on things like soap and tooth brushes.
Rita worked with Belterra Casino and Resort in Florence, Indiana to secure the 2-thousand dollars in hygiene items.
“All of these items will be put to good use by families in our community,” said Debra Des Vignes, VP of Marketing for HVAF. “We are grateful to all of the people at Belterra Casino and Resort for their time, effort and donations.”
Three weeks after the hygiene items delivery, Louise presented HVAF with a check for $1,000 from Bethel United Methodist Church at HVAF’s Annual Meeting. The church held its 3rd annual community service program recently and Louise’s friends, John and Dee Decaris, selected HVAF as the program recipient again this year.
