💙Thank You for Your Incredible Support!💙

We are so grateful for the enormous outpouring of donations that have come through our doors over the past week — your generosity has truly helped us serve more families in need. Every can, box, and bag has made a difference, and we couldn’t do it without you!

We have 82 families signed up for our food pantry this Friday! That doesn’t include call-ins or walk-ins that we receive the day of. We are trying hard to get our food pantry stocked in the next few days to ensure that we can support these families.

As we continue to meet growing needs, our food pantry fridge is empty. Refrigerated items are essential for families to enjoy nutritious, balanced meals — and we could use your help restocking it.

We’re currently in need of:
- 🥚 Eggs
- 🥛 Milk
- 🧀 Cheese
- 🍦 Yogurt

If you’re able to donate, please drop off items at our Family Resource Center during regular hours.
Together, we’re keeping our shelves — and hearts — full. 💕
