NOVEMBER 2024
To honor our veterans, Catholic Daughters Court #330 of Council Bluffs held collections of non-perishable food items, toiletries, and financial donations from the three Catholic parishes in Council Bluffs for the Pottawattamie County Veterans Services Pantry. They received monetary donations from the Foresters as part of a community grant to purchase items for the pantry. CDA court officers delivered the donations to the Pottawattamie County Veterans Affairs Office in Council Bluffs after Veterans Day and were given a tour of the pantry. Staff there were very appreciative of the items and financial donations. Thank you to Mariann Hilderbrand for the idea of helping the veterans. Thank you to Randy and Kathi Markel for making the connection to the Veterans Affairs Office. The Catholic Daughters hope to make this partnership a regular part of their Community Outreach Charitable Program. …….Regent Sheila Graham
