Dear Editor:

It is such a blessing to call Salado my home town.  Our little town is filled with the most generous people.  I have been involved with Salado Family Relief for 10 years now, and I am always amazed with the local support.  I want to thank all the local Restaurants and Bed & Breakfasts that donated soup, bread sticks and tea for our Empty Bowl Fundraiser in November.   Thanks to all the people that attended the event.   A special thank you to Titia at Mud Pies for donating beautiful pottery bowls, and lining up potters from all over central Texas to also donate bowls for this event.  Our group was also blessed to receive a generous donation that was collected from the Community Church Service held in November.    We just wrapped up our Christmas Project and we helped 147 local children with toys and gifts for Christmas.  Almost all of these children were assisted by local groups, churches and individuals in the community that shopped for a family or child.  Thanks again to everyone that helped with this event!

Sincerely,

Renee’ Oas, President

Salado Family Relief
