Students with the Scott County Youth Grantmaking Council (YGC), a program of the Scott County Community Foundation, recently collected 663 items and $120 from the community for the Scott County Community Clearinghouse. The collection was part of the Souper Bowl of Caring, a nationwide effort for churches, schools and the community to collect money and food near Super Bowl weekend, in order to fight hunger and poverty in local communities. This is the seventh year the YGC has participated, and the largest collection to-date for the members. The Clearinghouse assisted 520 families in January. Shown are Scott County Clearinghouse Operations Manager Judy Montgomery with YGC members (from left): Ryan Howser, Isaak Mount, Hannah Dickerson, Abby Doriot, Miranda Baker, Jenna Buckner, Alexa Howser, Emma Waskom, Lyla Waskom, Jakeb Watts, Haley Mullins, Jameson Hale, Caleb White, Jake Murphy, Josiah Croasdell, Jordan Shuler and Sara Edwards.
