Lewis Opinions expressed in letters to the editor do not necessarily represent those of the Desert Messenger. letters to the editor THANKS FROM FOOD BANK I would like to give a big Thank You to the Desert Messenger for all they do to help the Friends of the Quartzsite Food Bank. If Rain did not give us all the space in her won- derful newspaper every issue I do not believe we would have had such a successful year as we have had. The food bank serves hundreds of people who need a little help every month at Carol's Cupboard and it takes the donations of the whole- community. The Desert Messenger gets the word out for us when we have a fundraiser, a food drive or just our monthly request for dona- tions. So Thank You and keep up the good work you do for the com- munity.
