As the temperatures drop and inflation continues to rise, the importance of the
Christian Action Guild Food Pantry is more important than ever.
To provide the funding needed to increase food supplies and expand the number of families, CAG hosted their second “Shop for a Cause” on a beautiful October
Saturday afternoon. Shoppers were able to buy good quality branded clothing
donated by the Golden community while enjoying the bluegrass music of the Back Yard Grass band.
The event generated more than $3,400 in operating funds that will be used to buy food to supply the food pantry.
“With food prices increasing so much, the need for our pantry has been growing every month, and the proceeds of the boutique sale will make a huge impact in letting us serve more people and offer more types of food,” said Executive Director Kelly Ivan.
In addition to the shopping, guests enjoyed beverages provided by several local small businesses: Miners Saloon, Golden City Brewery and High Altitude Kombucha!
The CAG team is very appreciative of the many volunteers, sponsors and guests who made this fun afternoon a great success. Check out the pictures below and stay tuned for more exciting events coming in 2023.
