Holiday Food Drive a Success

On behalf of the Avon Township, I would like to thank the community for their generous donations of canned goods that resulted from the holiday food drive at the library.  The library participated with other organizations to meet the needs of the township residents. 

According to Sam Yingling, Township Supervsor, the township provided sustenance to 1,768 people in the community during the month of December.  Thank you for assisting families in their time of need.
