Volunteers pack a box truck with Good Cheer baskets in 2021.
In the midst of high inflation, the annual Good Cheer Fund food distribution is more important than ever.
The Good Cheer Fund is an annual effort to pass out holiday food baskets to the needy throughout Johnson County. Baskets include a mix of canned foods and fresh items, such as a ham or chicken, eggs, milk and cheese.
As volunteers prepare to distribute this year’s baskets, donations for next year’s distribution are lagging and organizers are asking for the community’s help to carry on the tradition that has been going strong for 101 years.
Donations are being accepted to support the Good Cheer Fund until the end of December. Donations can be mailed to the Daily Journal, P.O. Box 699, Franklin, IN 46131 or dropped off at our office at 30 S. Water St., Suite A, Franklin from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays.
For more information call 317-777-1159.
