Feed the Children returned to LeFlore County on Thursday to deliver the second of two truckloads of food for area agencies.According to Heather Sconyers, Social Services Specialist with LeFlore County Department of Human Services, the Oklahoma Department of Human Services, County Administrators Association and Feed the Children joined together last year to hold the largest food drive in Oklahoma history. The food drive began as a celebration during the Oklahoma Centennial and the onset of Make A Difference Day. Sconyers said each DHS county office was asked to raise as much money as possible to send to Feed the Children. Feed the Children, in turn, sent a truckload of food and toiletries per every $7,200 raised.Sconyers initiated the fund raising for LeFlore County under the direction of County Director Sevilla Vance.The efforts began in July 2007 and ended in October 2007.The first truckload of food was delivered in November. |
