‼️EXTRA DONATION🥹‼️
As many of our followers know, we were not able to donate goat meat due to the terrible fire at Monon Meat Packing and Catering Inc. (Thank you, Lord for keeping everyone safe). We were not able to financially replace the meat. When Operation junior board member and LaPorte County 4-H - Purdue Extension member, Brock Kessler heard this, he said, “watch this!” Brock had a wether on the lighter side at the LAPORTE COUNTY FAIR which he brought back home, fed, worked and continued showing through the fall. After a great showing at North American International Livestock Exposition NAILE, he and his family called Sims Meat Processing to see if they had room to process a goat to be donated to OPERATION 💙🥹 Processing of the goat is donated by an anonymous donor. (Thank you!)
Not only is this 29 lbs of goat meat greatly appreciated in our community, but it showed a long term commitment for Brock. We appreciate Brock and his family’s decision to donate the goat verses selling him.
We would love to share Brock’s selfless donation, so please comment, share, and like this post. We can only spread great stories with your help. 💙 4-Her’s are pretty awesome. 👏
⬇️ are a couple of pictures from Brock’s mom, Heather Kessler showing some of his goats 🐐

🚫This is NOT a political post 🚫 We will delete political comments.
Do you want to make sure kids don't go hungry next month if SNAP benefits go away? Here are a couple ideas (can be used anytime):
1️⃣Clean out your pantries and donate to your local food bank. Easy and you've already spent the money.
2️⃣Donate MONEY to the pantries. Most pantries are 501c3's or smilier and do not pay sales tax making their $1 go further. This also allows THEM to purchase what they need.
3️⃣Most families with kids have parents working many hours. Think of foods a child can prepare themselves with minimal help / needs; Easy Mac, soup, granola bars, squeeze pouch applesauce are some ideas.
💡Remember: Most cans require a can opener, unless it's a pull tab. Look 👀for the PULL TAB.
🥛Milk, 🍞 bread, and butter might be needed for something you donated. Consider donating these less common items.
👩‍🏫Lastly, write a note to your kiddos teacher or talk to your teacher friends. Most schools / classrooms have snack stations. Consider donating directly to the classroom / school. If there isn't a snack station, call the cafeteria. Ask if they take Angel 👼 Donations; a donation of money to clear lunch balances.
Unfortunately, trying times makes us remember the most vulnerable and innocent. Let's help each other instead of brewing hate 💙
Do YOU have any other ideas? Post them below ⬇️
