Concerts Raise Funds for Food Bank
The current economic climate has resulted in a significant increase in demand at St. Mary's Food Bank - the demand for food has doubled during the first six months of 2009 vs. the same period a year ago. Unfortunately, monetary donations have lagged behind the demand. However, among the positive developments are the number of concerts that have occurred in Phoenix where the performers have donated funds for the Food Bank. So thanks to Bruce Springsteen, Beyonce, the Indigo Girls, and Earth, Wind and Fire for their efforts on our behalf - for the thousands they've donated, and for the thousands of meals those dollars provided to those in need.
