Peacemakers baked brownies and served dinner to 70 homeless and abused women.
*Peacemaker members will be collecting donations from MHS students and staff next Monday and Tuesday for their Fall Fundraiser. The majority of the funds will be donated to Shelby Emergency on Valley Street, where over 1,000 needy Montevallo residents benefit from their services annually. A portion of the proceeds will help fund a homemade dinner served to 80 Hope Lodge cancer patients and their caregivers. Thank you for caring during this season of thanksgiving and supporting Peacemakers.
