Rotary delivers food baskets

During the holidays, the Rotary Club of Milledgeville prepared and delivered food baskets to families and individuals in the community. This project started more than 20 years ago, with the club preparing 25 baskets, and has grown every year.

In an effort to support Rotary’s mission, The Rotary Club of Milledgeville started a Christmas Basket program in 1982.  Each December Rotarians gather to prepare over 100 food baskets for financially and emotionally needy families in our community.  The recipients’ names comes from Rotarians that may know of someone, churches, Hospice of the Oconee, and the Baldwin County Department of Family and Children Services.  These baskets are prepared and delivered on the same day.  The baskets consisted of a ham, turkey, canned goods, and rolls.
