September 3, 2015 meeting notes:  Sixteen members attended and heard a presentation by Carol Beason from Cheney Outreach and John Matthews from the Cheney Food Bank.  Carol explained how the Cheney Community Service Council, local churches and Salvation Army support Outreach and how Outreach determine who qualifies for assistance.  They served 2000 people last year and supplied such things as sports scholarships, school supplies, Christmas gifts and small cash awards to help with utilities.  The food bank receives support from Second Harvest and has recently received an endowment from a former volunteer.
