COVID-19 NOTICE

Given the current circumstances surrounding COVID-19, we will be accepting food donations only. We are not accepting clothing or household donations until further notice. We will be distributing food to our clients with minimal physical contact at curbside. With these temporary procedures in place, we are able to operate with minimal volunteers. Thank you for your support at this challenging time.
