Donate and Help Seniors Over the Holidays

Donate and Help Seniors Over the Holidays

Churchill County Social Services and the Independent Telecommunications Pioneer Association (ITPA) are joining forces this holiday season to collect donations from the community to help pay for utility bills, up to $150 initially, for local homebound seniors who use Meals on Wheels.

Social Services will verify seniors' eligibility and keep all collected information confidential. Seniors who wish to participate will be entered into a raffle, and funds raised will be distributed via raffle among those seniors who elect to participate. 

“The more we raise, the more help we can provide those eligible and less fortunate folks. We can only succeed with businesses and citizens of our community making donations,” said Dawn A. Ballard, ITPA Holiday Coordinator.

Contributions by check should be mailed to ITPA CC Communications, P.O. Box 1390, Fallon, NV 89407. 
Ballard can be reached via phone at (775) 217-8773 or email at [email protected] with any questions.

Donations are being accepted through Dec. 18, 2023.

One of my most favorite stories Paul told dated back to the late 60s or early 70s and it revolved around him killing a deer way out in the mountains. Naturally the deer ran down into a deep canyon and died. Knowing that it would take him forever to haul it out he devised an awesome plan. After preparing the deer he drove back to NAS Fallon and rustled up a SAR crew and they flew out and picked up the deer. Of course it was labeled as a training flight but what the hell in those days you could do that sort of thing. Rest in Peace my friend until we meet again!!Comment publication date: 4/11/24, 1:15 PMComment source: Obituary - LCDR Paul N PflimlinComment author: THughesComment text: So sad to hear.
