Deal alert!

Walgreens currently has their storage bags for just 88c a package! No coupon needed.

If you’re out and about, we can always use all sizes of bags for repackaging bulk food (but we go through quart size the most).

Thanks so much for thinking of us and of those who are facing food insecurity during this holiday weekend.

Thanks Madison County Division of MIBOR for hosting us this week to share our mission to equip kids and families with basic needs and empower them for a stable future…

And for collecting school supplies!
📏 ✏️ 📚

School isn’t even done, but we already have 91 kids registered for our Back to School assistance for next year through our partner programs.

Every supply counts towards helping these kiddos get prepared for a great year ahead.

Thank you for investing in education, taking the weight off of families facing hardship, and showing up for kids in our community.
