New
Building is Completed
We have moved into the new pantry! The construction is finished but
we need to continue fundraising. The downturn in the economy created many
hardships for the people we serve but also left us $500,000 short on the funding
we need to pay for this project. The new facility plays a key role
in our ability to continue to serve theincrease need we are seeing with
efficiency and respect.
