Treats & Eats from A to Z Cook Books
The Fayette County Community Action Agency, Inc. Food Bank's cookbook, Treats & Eats from A to Z, is on sale now.
The cookbook contains 450 recipes from staff, friends, and family of the FCCAA Food Bank.  Approximately 80 of the recipes in the cookbook are recipes used by the FCCAA nutritionists and dieticians through the Nutrition Education and WIC Programs.  The recipes are perfect if you are trying to lower your cholesterol, have diabetes, or are watching what you eat.  These recipes are included in the "This & That" section of Treats & Eats from A to Z.
We are asking you to make a $5 tax deductible donation for the cookbook.  Each donation will provide $200 worth of food to 200 residents in Fayette County.  We believe this is an excellent return on your investment. If we mail the cookbook to you, we are asking that you enclose an additional $3 to cover postage.
 These cookbooks are beautifully published in a three ring, hard-back binder.  If you have not purchased your copy of Treats & Eats from A to Z, please do so soon.  If you already purchased your cookbook, we are asking you to do some marketing and promotion for us.
If you are interested in obtaining a cookbook or two or three (they will make wonderful presents), please contact Jamie Brink (724.437.6050, ext. 1264 or (jbrink@fccaa.org or you can stop in at the food bank.

The staff and volunteers at the Fayette County Community Action Agency, Inc. (FCCAA) Food Bank would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to those who have generously supporting our food bank in the days and weeks following the November 22nd flood.  

The flood greatly impacted the distribution of food at FCCAA Food Bank.  Flood waters destroyed food that was earmarked for area food pantries and needy families.  The food was planned for distribution throughout December, our busiest time of the year, to about 3,000 area families. Over 30 tons of food had to be disposed of. The food bank furnace, food coolers and freezers, computers, office furniture and equipment, carpeting and various office, warehouse and maintenance supplies were also damaged and/or destroyed. 

Although the devastation of the flood was immense, we are slowly rebuilding our supply of food and provisions and we remain extremely grateful to have received such strong support from our local communities during this difficult time.
If you would like to send a donation, please do so to:
Fayette County Community Action Agency Food Bank,  108 North Beeson Blvd.  Uniontown, PA 15401. 
Thank you very much.
