During this season of thanks and giving, we asked if you would be willing to donate food to help those who are hungry. On November 20th, 23rd, and 24th, we collected all the food that was sent in. We are truly blessed and thankful to all of you. The outpouring of donations will help many who are hungry this holiday season. Thank you so much for all of your help.
