Thank you to everyone who donated to the Iron Mountain Youth Lounge Food Drive on Friday, April 24th and helped make this possible 💚

Because of your generosity, the Iron Mountain Youth Lounge was able to give back to a local food bank that is really struggling right now. Your support is directly helping individuals and families in our community access the food they need during a difficult time.

We’re incredibly proud of our youth and community for stepping up and showing what kindness and compassion look like in action. This is what community is all about—supporting each other when it matters most.

Donations are still being accepted today at 2040 Granite Ave between 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM if you’d like to contribute!

Thank you for being part of something meaningful.
