Our Community
Ryan’s Servicenter believes in giving back to the community that helps us. Here are some ways we give back.
The Lacey Food Bank program is operated by volunteers and depends entirely on food and monetary donations from the public and the business community. With the exception of filing fees, telephone, equipment and minimal office supplies, over 90% of your donation goes to buy food and food coupons for the clients of the food bank. The server for the website is donated. The food bank van was donated by Excelon and they also donate money for the insurance and maintenance. Township residence must show proof of residency as well as financials to participate in the program. For more information please see www.laceyfoodbank.org.
The Lanoka Harbor Volunteer Fire Company, founded in 1940, is a volunteer organization primarily supported by donations from residents. They have approximately 45 members, work closely with the Lacey Township Police Department, and do not charge for their services. Additionally, the Fire Company has a Fire Prevention program for all ages, and visits children to speak about fire safety and prevention. For more information, please visit http://lhfd61.com.
