This just in....Madison FFA comes to the rescue last night at the Rexburg Mobile Food Pantry!
The food pantry volunteer numbers have been dwindling lately, which makes distributing food to more than 600 families challenging. Last night, the Madison FFA showed up and served from start to finish, doubling the number of volunteers at the event.
The pantry director commented that they are one of the hardest working groups she has ever seen out there and reaffirmed that they saved the day (and the day of 650 families) by choosing to volunteer.
We are so proud of these students and their dedication to the FFA AND their community. Thank you for representing Madison in such a fine way!
