📢 Operation Hunger – January Schedule Update

We wanted to share a quick update with our community. Operation Hunger will take place on January 17 this month, one week later than usual. Our food delivery schedule was briefly shifted due to holiday timing, and this adjustment ensures we have everything needed to serve families fully and reliably.

As a result, grocery packing will also move back one week and will now take place on January 15 — and yes, pizza is still included for our amazing volunteers.

Thank you for your flexibility and continued support. We appreciate this community more than you know.
