Bushel Baskets of Blessings were assembled by the American Legion Auxiliary Unit 109, Natoma.

St. John Lutheran Quilting Guild, Russell, joined in the effort by adding handmade quilts to each basket for women who lost their homes in the devastating Four County Wildfires of Dec. 15.

Auxiliary members filled baskets with leather work gloves, toiletries, kitchen essentials, Gideon Bibles, devotionals, fresh breads and many other essential items for the displaced families.
