This week, we would like to recognize several local businesses who go ABOVE AND BEYOND to help us make our program possible!

Today, we want to send a huge THANK YOU to Melissa Parks, with Melissa Parks Photography! Melissa has taken pictures of our participants for the past several years and does a phenomenal job! She is very talented and is always willing to help in supporting our program. She is a great resource for senior pictures and any photography needs.
