Dear Members of the Jardineros de Placitas,

Thank you so much for the generous contribution you made to our pantry. We gave out $15,543 in food to 1,291 persons in a year's time. This is only possible through helping hands.

This donation will go a long way with the many needs of our community.

Thank you also for the baggies. They are definitely much needed.
