It may be hot and humid out right now, but we have some great ways you can stay cool inside while helping those in need in our community!
Here are 5 ways you can help our neighbors who are hungry, homeless or in danger from domestic violence …
1) Participate in our What’s for Dinner? Food Drive
Help fill our shelves with cooking essentials for families in need in our community. Our most needed items right now include: canned pasta, pasta sauce, cooking oil and condiments. Your donations go directly to help feed hungry families.
