💛 We Need Your Help, Ohio Valley 💛

Our shelves are running low, and we’ve been serving at least five families a day with food and essential items. Right now, we’re especially in need of meal prep items for our “Meal in a Bag” program — these simple bags help feed a family of four for the night.

Some easy examples of what helps most:
🍴 Black beans, diced chiles & tomatoes, Spanish rice, corn, refried beans, tortillas
🍴 2 boxes of mac & cheese = one meal for 4
🍴 Knorr (or off-brand) pasta sides with Spam
🍴 Canned chicken + jar of Alfredo + noodles = a full dinner

We also desperately need kid-friendly snacks for our outside Blessing Box — granola bars, fruit cups, pudding, crackers, juice boxes, and more.

In addition to food, we are very low on hygiene items and cleaning supplies — these are critical needs that go fast and make a huge difference for struggling families.

Inside, we continue to help our neighbors daily with vouchers for beds, couches, recliners, tables, desks, cleaning supplies, hygiene products, and more — but it all runs out quickly.

🎄 We’re also starting to collect Christmas gifts for kids, so if you’d like to help make a child’s holiday a little brighter, we would be truly grateful.

Together, we can make sure no neighbor is left behind this season. Every donation, big or small, helps keep hope alive in our community. ❤️
