MWPC gives to Batavia YWCA Food Pantry

Mount Washington Presbyterian Church (MWPC) has made a $10,000 donation to the Batavia YWCA recognizing that the demand for food support in Clermont County continues to rise and in recognition of the outstanding work that the Batavia YWCA does. "It's a godsend," Lynn Stranz, director of the Batavia YWCA's emergency services, said of MWPC's donation.  In the month of January alone the Y's Food Pantry had provided emergency food assistance to over 2300 individuals and funds were dwindling. 

MWPC has supported the Batavia YWCA food pantry for over 20 years through both its hunger ministry and its Christmas Giving Tree programs.  MWPC has recently announced a goal of making hunger ministry its signature outreach ministry and plans to commit $100,000 to this cause over the next year in celebration of its upcoming Centennial Anniversary.
