🧦 Small Items, Big Impact

Our partnership with Bombas lets us offer something extra alongside groceries — fresh socks, t‑shirts, and underwear that bring real comfort to the neighbors we serve. Each month, every household can choose a Bombas item, and that little bit of warmth goes a long way in Michigan winters.

We’re grateful for Bombas and their commitment to caring for our community from head to toe. 💛
