On the afternoon of April 10th, the Grand Opening of the expanded Demon Pantry took place. Pictured above is the door leading to it.
Click on the image below to view the news report of that event shown on WXLV tv.
To view the handout that was given to all attendees (including the news media): click on the image of the door (above). This handout gave the history of the Demon Pantry, and how (and why) the expansion came about.
The handout tells about RJR having 34 homeless students. They are supported by a social worker (Lanette Taylor) who is assigned to Reynolds High School. To view the video (mentioned in the handout) between RJR Alumni Vice-President Harry Corpening and Ms. Taylor: click on the following image of them.
It MUST be pointed out that even though Lanette can offer some things to the homeless students, that leaves a LOT of needs these teenagers have unmet. Financial donations can help meet those needs. If you would like to write a check for such a (tax-deductible) donation: make it out to "RJR Alumni" and mail it to: RJR Alumni * PO Box 26172 * Winston-Salem, NC 27114. On the memo-line write in "social worker initiative."
If you have an IRA and are at least 70 1/2 years old, you can use your IRA to make a donation. To learn how, click onto the following image.
