The event will begin at 9:30 a.m. at Moore’s, located at 101 Edgewood Drive.
Employees and families will work with students from Faith Christian Academy to fill five-gallon buckets with non-perishable food, supplies, hygiene items, a Bible, and a handwritten note.
“We are excited and grateful to our wonderful partners at Moore’s for taking the time to assemble these Blessing Buckets,” said Julie Burnett, God’s Pit Crew Blessing Bucket Director. “They are desperately needed for disaster survivors. The buckets provide emergency supplies, along with emotional and spiritual encouragement when people need it the most.”
