As 2017 came to a close, the Back Street Bar & Family Restaurant hosted a cocoa party for the distribution of the winter boots. A cornucopia of items also was collected for a single mom’s Thanksgiving basket. In keeping with the holiday spirit and generosity, an adopt-a-family project began.
Stockbridge Bowling Alley became a collection point for food items for family Christmas baskets. A generous donation of a gift card from the Munith Lions was given directly to one family.

The Munith/Stockbridge Area Pay It Forward aided with the needs of yet another family. All together, the community effort helped 10 families in various ways, double the original plan of five.
