Fall is here. Time for lots of Corn on the cob and squash, And dont
forget Pumpkins. We are very grateful for the donations we have been
getting from the local farmer's and farmer's markets. Its always a
blessing to get fresh vegetables in. Even though its only fall we
are starting to get into the mode of preparing for Thanksgiving and
Christmas. We have recently sent out our latest newsletter with
important information on when we will be accepting applications for
our Thanksgiving baskets and our Christmas toys. If you would like a
newsletter please feel free to contact us and i would gladly mail
you out one.

I would like to take this oppurtunity to give you some information
on what Crossroads Resource Center does..
Crossroads
Resource Center is a non-profit organization. We provide many
service to the members of our community as well as the surrounding
areas. We currently serve Old Town, Orono, Bradley, Milford, Alton,
Greenbush, Greenfield and Argyle.
Here are the numbers
of people we serve monthly:
The
things we do on a daily basis consist of providing food for those
who are need. We are a food pantry and we are open from 10:30 a.m.
to 3:00 p.m. Monday thru friday. We are closed the 4th monday of
every month. We have been blessed to be able to offer our clients
with a variety of foods. When you come in and fill out an
application you will be walked through by one of our many
volunteers. You are able to pick out what items you would like to
have. Some items that we have everyday are bread, meat, potatoes,
cereal. These items are subject to change due to demands.We do our
best to keep our shelves stocked with food. If you are in need of
food and live in any of these areas please feel free to stop by and
fill out our application. You will need to provide proof of i.d. as
well as proof of everyone who lives with you.
We also have a thrift
store down stairs that is also open the same hours as our food
pantry. Our thrift store is run by Leslie Murphy and all of our
items are things that our neighbore have donated to us. We have
things that range from clothing to house hold items and we even from
time to time get in furniture. There is always something new
everyday. If there are items that you are in desperate need of and
we dont carry it we also have a voucher program through salvation
army that can assist you as well. If you are in need of anything
stop by and take a look or if your looking to donate stuff feel free
to stop by as well or call us.
We can also help with electricity, If you
are unemployed and you have a disconnect notice give us a call and
we can assist you.
Most of our items from
food to items in our thrift store are accumulated through donations.

Crossroads takes Desktop Computers!
Don't throw that old computer away, we at
Crossroads can turn these old PCs into working units for those that
can't afford one, and re-sell PC hardware, where the proceeds go
directly back into services for the communities. Call to donate or
have us pick up.
