Parishioners of Christ Child Catholic Church on Summit Rd. would like to  thank the mountain community for supporting food drives which occur from time-to-time in front of the Summit Store. Volunteers from the parish man a table with posters created by parish kids. The food and cash donations are split between the St. Francis soup kitchen and the St. Vincent de Paul food pantry in Santa Cruz--see Outreach.
Thanks again to Karen and Darrell Osborn for allowing us to be at their Store. We live in a great community that supports neighbors who need help.
