ANNOUNCEMENTS
Peanut Butter Drive for North Texas Food Bank (Sept. 1-30)
September 1 is the beginning of the North Texas Food Bank (NTFB) annual Peanut Butter Drive, which runs for the entire month. These past few years have been extremely challenging for many families to put food on their tables. We are hoping that Whiffletree neighbors will generously support this event. Perhaps we will win the “Nuttiest Neighborhood in Plano” award.
You can make secure financial contributions at by clicking on the following link: NTFB DONATIONS BY WNA
Alternately, you may deliver actual jars of peanut butter or alternative nut butters, such as almond butter, to the home of Pat and Ray Nelson, 3904 Mission Ridge Rd. There will be a box on the front porch for this. You can also drop off cash donations or a check at the Nelson’s home payable to Whiffletree Neighborhood Association or “WNA”. We will accumulate all the cash and check donations received and make one donation to NTFB Peanut Butter Drive on behalf of Whiffletree neighbors.
Your generous donations will be greatly appreciated.
