Grand Blanc Township was honored as one of just five launch locations for a massive national food donation campaign.

 

A semi-truck carrying 40,000 pounds of food arrived on November 19, part of the America250 initiative by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

 

The program commemorates the nation's 250th anniversary by sending 250 truckloads to communities across all 50 states.

 

Church leaders said Grand Blanc was chosen as a direct response to the community's recent outpouring of compassion following a local tragedy.

 

The donation of canned goods, pasta, and other essentials was delivered to FISH of Grand Blanc.

 

The local organization will distribute the supplies to area families facing food insecurity, providing a powerful sign of support and recognition for a community that came together in a time of need.

FISH of Grand Blanc, a local organization, is currently providing food assistance to over 400 people every week.

The demand for help is expected to increase significantly after the school year ends.

Due to cutbacks, the organization is facing challenges in acquiring food supplies from USDA, leading to higher costs per case.

Donations of non-perishable items such as canned food, cereals, and hygiene products are crucial in supporting their mission.

Volunteers are also needed to assist in various activities like collecting donations and sorting food items.

For more information on how to support FISH of Grand Blanc, contact their office or visit their Facebook page.
A recall petition has been filed against six Grand Blanc Township officials for their role in the suspension of the fire chief.

The petition alleges that the officials violated the Open Meetings Act by holding a closed session to discuss the fire chief's suspension.

The officials have denied any wrongdoing and claim that they followed proper procedures.

The recall petition is seeking to remove the officials from office for their actions.
