The Mrs. Washington Pageant is about Making a Difference. This year we have been supporting the Moses Lake Food Bank. We held an online auction for gift baskets that did very well. My company Simply Swank donated a great Soldering basket. A big thanks goes out to Julie from Oklahoma who won the bid at $225! I custom made her 2 soldered necklaces as part of her win! I also taught a soldering class and donated part of the proceeds to the MENC and the rest went to the Moses lake food bank. The money earned was added on to the total amount raised for the auction for a total of $375!
Along with volunteering at the food bank we also have collected food to donate also. I collected 6 bags full of all sorts of great food. After working in the food bank sorting donations I got a good feel for what types of items they needed. They sure seem to get lots of cans of beans! It feels great to help out and be a part of the community in Moses Lake.
