Blessing Boxes address hunger in our community

Goddard Lions Club has placed four Blessing Boxes around our community. The concept, modeled after a similar project that started in Wichita several years ago, places a box for nonperishable food items in public places, with the idea that those in need can take what they need -- and those who wish to help can donate nonperishable food and personal care items simply by placing them in the box.

Blessing Boxes are located at Maple Village Mobile Home Park, Regency Mobile Home Park, on the southeast corner of Goddard Academy campus, and in the parking lot at Pathway Church.  There is also a Blessing Box on Main Street in front of the Goddard Public Library.
