On Saturday, February 11, 2023, The Crider Foundation partnered with the city of Lavonia, Georgia to host a Valentine's themed charity event called the Lavonia is for Lovers Community Drive. Jessica, Rebekah, and Andrea invited the community to join in on some fun some fun while we collect canned food donations to put in the donation box for the Lavonia Food Pantry.
In addition to collecting canned food donations for the Lavonia Food Pantry, The Crider Foundation hosted a silent auction, carnival games, a cornhole tournament, a cake walk, and a Valentine's Day Raffle! The Raffle prize containing Valentines candy, a $20 Starbucks Gift Card, and a cash prize of $30 was won by a local Lavonia woman. Congratulations Ms. T!!
The Crider Foundation believes that kindness breeds kindness. The holiday of love seemed like a perfect opportunity to host our very first event, which turned out to be a success despite the cold and rainy weather.. With the help of the generous people in Lavonia, we were able to fill up our donation box for the Lavonia Food Pantry, who will soon distribute this food to hungry people across Franklin County.
Thank you to everybody who made this event possible! We couldn't have done it without you!
