Roy and Jibba generously set up the Roy S. and Elizabeth P. Powell Mobile Meals Trust Fund with the Spartanburg County Foundation which annually provides a very generous gift to feed those in need, many of which are in Camp Croft Courts. Their cycle of loving others and taking care of those in need will continue forever from their trust! I pray that their generosity will inspire others. We always receive the blessing by blessing others. Story Credit: Jayne McQueen with Mobile Meals of Spartanburg, September 2020 Newsletter
