What Can I Do To Help?
We are in constant, desperate need of volunteers, especially at our thrift shop and food pantry location. We have had to add another day we cannot open to the week unfortunately because of a shortage of dependable volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering or lending a hand in some way, please reach out to us by any method most comfortable to you, whether by phone, email or Facebook messenger.
