Thank you so much to everyone who helped with the 2021 Blessing Bags giveaway! Our volunteers were able to serve 125 cars at our food pantry.
We provided help to over 150 families with 133 Blessing Bags, gift cards, and additional food we had in our pantry from from your generous donations and through our partnership with Gleaners. Additionally, we provided meals to 60 families feeding 240 people though our partnership with Second Helpings
In total, we estimate that over 500 people were impacted through these generous donations.
Thank you for going above and beyond to serve others in our community!
