    By Skip Babb
   The CARE CLOSET visited the Umatilla Kiwanis Club this past Monday, showcasing their program to feed the hungry in and around Umatilla. A local non-profit based in Lake County, provides weekly food support for students facing food insecurity - hunger. The Project fuels 45-50 families each week, distributing food for a total of 36 weeks during the school year.
   Their program is 100% donor supported and always free for the families. Kiwanians were impressed with the sincerity of their project and offered to help in any way they could spreading the word of their humanitarian project. They need a Work Van, money and food. A fund raising event is planned April 18 at Sunsational Farms, in Umatilla.
