THE PARK VIEW REVIEW JUNE, 2019
Park View Community News
Our annual Park View Community Mission golf tournament, held on May 31, was a hole-in-one! It was a beautiful day and everyone enjoyed themselves out on the course. With your help, we raised over $22,000 that will go to support our five growing programs. We would like to thank our tournament sponsor, Crouch Insurance Services, and all our 46 other event and hole sponsors, including Berglund Luxury Auto Group for being our hole-in-one sponsor.
In addition, many thanks to the auction and prize contributors that donated all our beautiful items we gave away that day as golf awards and prizes. We would also like to thank all our dedicated volunteers, staff and board members that made this day a tremendous success!
Lastly, a very special thank you to Don Crouch and Tom Hodges for all their help and guidance all the way through the five months of planning this event. We look forward to seeing you all next May out on the course.
T hank you for making it your mission
to help us with ours!
Hunger Takes No Vacation
The school year has ended but hunger has not. Summertime is extremely hard for food insecure students, since they no longer can rely on school provided breakfasts and lunches. To help alleviate some weekend hunger, Food for Thought, Park View’s Backpack feeding program is delivering up to 500 weekend food bags to the 33 different summer programs across Lynchburg City weekly. Unfortunately, even with the proceeds from the golf tournament, we face a financial shortage in the summer, so we continue to depend of your help! Please click the Donate tab at parkviewmission.org or call us! To volunteer, text helpPVCM to 760670313.
DID YOU KNOW?
We don't want to just give people a fish, we want to teach them how to fish! Free classes are available through our Life Skills Institute. A recent newspaper article shows how these classes are making a difference in our community by teaching our neighbors skills to live a healthier and more productive life.

Come Join Us For Our Neighborhood Cook-out!

Summers are always filled with food, friends and fun! At Park View, that is no different. On Wednesday, July 31st, We want to take our weekly Wednesday night meal and make it bigger and better than ever!
It's going to be a good ole cookout with food, games, and music, but we need your help to make it a success! We would love if you could not only join us in providing and serving the meal but in having fun and building community as well!
Thank you to the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank for the pallet jack and scale to use for our Food for Thought Program. They also provided our Food for Families pantry with a new freezer so we can serve our neighbors more effectively.
And a big thanks to the six local Walmarts for continuing to support our Food for Families pantry with $6,000 in grants.
