The senior citizens in McHenry county have responded to a request for contributions on a voluntary basis to help the council in its current financial situation. After a request for support was published in the council newsletter, which goes to 7,402 persons every month, over $3,000 was contributed by individual seniors in the first six days. These funds go directly to correct a budget deficit of $50,000.
