The ladies of Kizzy Scott Circle at Mt. Vernon United Methodist Church in Greeleyville, SC, donate to Sarah’s Fund.
The group’s namesake, Kizzy Scott, was Sarah Timmons’ grandmother. Throughout her life, Sarah was very active in her church and this group. She especially enjoyed baking her famous pound cakes for fundraisers. It would be impossible to count how many contributions Sarah made to community causes in her lifetime through her selfless act of baking. Now, that tradition continues as the ladies from Kizzy Scott Circle lovingly prepared a donation for Sarah’s Fund.
Kizzy Scott Circle gathered donations and sent their gift to the Dolly Parton My People Senior Center, which allocates Sarah’s Fund to seniors living in Sevier County, Tennessee. Their hard work and dedication to serving others is a beautiful testament to Sarah Timmons.
The My People Center continues to serve community seniors with meals, care packages and even virtual games.
The Dolly Parton My People Center and Sarah’s Fund continue to ensure seniors are staying connected, even during the COVID-19 pandemic, through meals, care packages and more. This pandemic has taken a toll on seniors, but with efforts like this, we can provide our local seniors with necessities and fun, safe interactions.
Monthly food packages and hygiene bags are being distributed to area seniors. In addition, more than 2,000 prepared meals are delivered monthly through the “Homebound Senior Meal Program.”
Every afternoon, virtual games bring seniors together, even when they have to stay apart. This fun, interactive solution allows seniors to be social while avoiding any adverse risks. Maintaining social interaction is important, especially for seniors, who have been largely impacted by isolation over the past year.
The meals, care packages and virtual games, along with other offerings, are made possible with support from the community. Thank you for continuing to help our local seniors.
