Once again, Mike Weaver, chairman of the Pinney Foundation, is seeking worthwhile causes that may qualify for grants. The funds are restricted to non-profit projects that benefit the Cass City area. Requests that aid only one segment of the community, such as an individual church denomination are ineligible.
Deadline for consideration is April 29. Applications should be directed to Weaver at 7972 Bay Drive, Pigeon, MI 48755.

Thrivent Financial for Lutherans has a goal of delivering 10,000 food packets to the Kids Against Hunger Great Lakes Coalition. The community service activity is slated for May 10th at the Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Cass City.
That's a lot of food and plenty of help is needed, according to event spokesman Chuck Volz. If you are able to volunteer, contact Volz by calling 989-672-5220.
