The passing of Shirley Kost has been felt community wide most famously as a Texas Rangers Super Fan or also know as the Cookie Lady.
This Pantego resident and Arlington Charities volunteer loved Arlington, her community, her Rangers but most importantly her family.
Ranger front office to staff and players all knew her and her love for people. Our hearts are still heavy with the news but she now has the best seat in the house to cheer on her Rangers!

#ArlingtonTX Mayor and Council recognized Arlington Charities at last night's meeting, issuing a proclamation for "Arlington Charities Day" and thanking the nonprofit for helping families in need during the COVID-19 pandemic. #ArlingtonKindness ❤️
Each second Saturday of the month, the Dallas/Fort Worth Platoon teams up with Arlington Charities and Tarrant Area Food Bank to assist at a mobile food pantry held at Saint Andrews United Methodist Church as part of Operation Nourish. Their help allows the food pantry to feed between 450-500 families!
This month, they were joined by the Texas Veterans Network and members of Sigma Phi Psi, some who even drove up from Houston and San Antonio to help out!
Thank you Arlington Charities for the food i received today. And thank you to the volunteers for their hard work. Love to all. Blesses.
#ArlingtonTX is proud to celebrate Community Development Week and the important services made possible with CDBG and HOME! #CDBG is helping underserved communities during the pandemic. One example is Arlington Charities, a local nonprofit that used CDBG to enhance access to their facility and parking lot right before the pandemic.
CDBG funds also allowed the organization to meet the increased demand for food and supplies in their drive through pantry. We are thankful that Arlington Charities was able to meet the challenge and help so many families in need. #CDWeek2021 ❤️
Thank you for the food i received at the food pantry/bank. I dont have to worry about feeding myself and my dogs this month. Your foundation is a Godsend.
