In 2024 the Library's food pantry was able to help 351 families, 805 individuals, and our community garden harvested 1360 pounds of produce! We would not have been able to help as many as we did without the generosity of local businesses, organizations, and area residents. We would like to take a moment to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated items to our pantry, produce to our stash, and those who gave monetarily.
Local business and organizations we wish to thank for their generosity are:
- Alpha Kappa Sorority
- Arma American Legion
- Arma United Methodist Church
- St. Joseph Catholic Church
- Community National Bank and Trust of Arma
- Mengarelli's Family Table
- Bella Vita Salon and Storage, LLC
- The Salvation Army of Pittsburg
- Kansas Works
- The Lapghan Ladies
- Martinous Produce Co.
In addition to a variety of businesses and organizations, the outpouring of support from area residents has been a gift. We would like to thank the following individuals:
- Joe and Linda Broyles
- Sarah Brecheisen
- Helen Wuertele and Ray
- Bev and Jim Presley
- Debra Cummings
- Our friend in apartment 21 who donates Mom's Meals
- Kristina Stansbury

And many others who have given anonymously or we that may have (unintentionally) forgetten.
We truly could not have done it without you. Thank you!
Here's to a bigger and brighter 2025!
