Sharing Food, Love, & Hope 

We Need Your Help...
     School is back in session! Please help us ensure parents have enough food to provide for their families. It's proven that kids do better in school when they have a full tummy. 
     With the increase in food prices, this is an extra challenge to already struggling families and seniors.  We can help reduce hunger and give these families a little peace of mind. We are able to do this because of the amazing support of our community.  
       You can be the one to make the difference. Please consider donating and help us help others. 
       We could really use canned soup, jelly, cereal, canned pasta, ramen noodles, hot dogs & lunch meat, hamburger helper, crackers, soup, bottled water. Also, with the cold weather, hats and gloves are much appreciated. 
      Giving a little, helps a lot!
