Juneteenth committee presents check to Ministerial Alliance

Posted

The Fayette Juneteenth committee presented a check to the Fayette Ministerial Alliance in the amount of $665 on Wednesday morning. The donation represents the funds received during the community worship service held on the courthouse square on  Sunday, June 23, on the last day of Fayette’s five-day Juneteenth Celebration.

Fayette has one of the longest running Juneteenth celebrations in the state. This year was the 23rd annual celebration. It is held across town, from the courthouse to Paige-Liberty Park, to the Central Methodist University campus.

The Fayette Ministerial Alliance runs the local food bank, and has for many years operated the critical Buddy Pack Program, which provides backpacks full of nutritious food for local school children to take home on the weekends.
