Blue Valley Community Action

Thanks to all in the forever family who gathered more than 600 hygiene items to bless Blue Valley Community Action in our Give Thanks and Give Back November challenge. Since we successfully hit our target of 500 items, the collection drive will be supplemented with a Generosity Multiplier Gift for BVCA, courtesy of the Thrivent Member Network – Nebraska Region.

Our December item for the Blue Valley food pantry is tuna. The collection box is in the Rock Cafe. Thanks for being a blessing to the community in this way! You can see our Blue Valley Pantry item schedule on our website. Also, they would still like more of the following: pasta, pasta meal mixes, instant potato side dishes, and mashed potatoes.
