WOW! What a wonderful turn out we had on Saturday at Buttermilk Barn for our Kid’s Flower Pot Event! The creativity and pure joy was so great to see 🥰 HUGE thank you to Carol and her staff at the barn for hosting us! All of the generous donations stay right here in Merrimac to fund support for families in need and events such as this! With that being said, what are some other creative events like this would you like to see here in Merrimac? We’re itching to do another one 🤩

🚨We’re Here!🚨

Introducing the Good Neighbor Program right here in Merrimac! We are so excited for this endeavor and are looking forward to engaging with the community in any way we can 😊

To start, we are offering a referral program and resource assistance! This allows community members to reach out on their own behalf or on behalf of someone else that may need assistance or even just a friend to check-in.

As we accrue more volunteers, we will expand with programs, activities, and super fun events! So be sure to follow us and stay in touch 🫶🏼

Please reach out with any questions you may have! More information will be uploaded and available throughout the week but wanted to get the word out on socials that we are here, and we are ready to help :)
