Music for food

Special to The Citizen

Mikey B & the Sent Forth Band play Christian music every week, but their performance at the First Baptist Church of Jordan Nov. 15 had a special purpose. They were trying to raise money and food donations for the Jordan-Elbridge Ecumenical Food Pantry.

“The economy has been hard on everyone, and people aren't able to give as much either,” said Joan Scott, the coordinator of the pantry. “Even so, people are more generous at holiday time. We've always had very generous people in this area. We don't depend on any of the food banks. We're self-sufficient. But recent months have seen an increase in people who need help.”
