| Montgomery Food Pantry: Payyroll Deduction Forms for the Food Pantry are available. The forms are printed on blue card stock paper. If you choose to participate, deductions for the Food Pantry will be taken two times per month from October to June (i.e. 18 deductions). For example $1 per pay will equal $18 per year (i.e. $1 x 18 pays = $18 per year), whereas $3 per pay will equal $54 per year (i.e. $3 x 18 pays = $54 per year). All deductions will be deposited into a designated account and then forwarded to the Food Pantry. By agreeing to payroll deduction you can ensure that the Montgomery Food Pantry receives your funding monthly, making their mission of providing food to Valley Central families and children more efficient. |
