(Atlantic) Atlantic Rising and volunteers could be seen out delivering food boxes on Thursday, December 15th in the evening. The organization began collecting donations and nominations in early November and completed another successful program.
Kelsey Beschorner is Atlantic Rising’s Social Chair…
This year, Atlantic Rising was able to provide a holiday meal to over 180 individuals and families all throughout Cass County. The donations received from the community totaled over $6,200, which allowed each box to contain more items and each nomination to be fulfilled. Atlantic Rising teamed up with the Washington G.E.M, a local 4-H group, who helped assemble, pack, and load the vehicles with the Christmas boxes which made the process run smoothly.
