Commerce Bank is helping the Food Bank supply peanut butter to the Buddy Packs again this year and they need your help!Buddy Packs are taken home by school students who are in the free and reduced lunch programs so that they have nutritious food to eat over the weekends and holidays--food such as canned fruit, individual servings of cereal, pudding and jello packs, peanut butter crackers, jelly, pop-top pasta meals, dried fruits and nuts, cheese crackers, granola bars, and juice boxes.The Food Bank estimates that it costs approximately $100 to provide a Buddy Pack for one student during one school year. Thankfully, The Food Bank receives donated food items, backpacks, and donations in order to help so many hungry children. There are a number of items that they need to purchase such as peanut butter and applesauce.That's where you come in. Starting August 1 through the 12th, Commerce Bank will have Food Bank barrels in their lobbies to collect jars of peanut butter. If you go shopping this weekend please pick up a jar or 2 or 10! For some of the kids who get a Buddy Pack this peanut butter & the rest of the goodies in the back pack are all that is between them and hunger. But we can help!If you have any other questions, contact Ann Warren at Commerce Bank. She's at 573-886-5282 or Ann.Warren@CommerceBank.com.
