Helping Hands

We can always use more helping hands, especially with mowing, weed whacking, fix-it projects, occasional errand running (we do not have a road worthy pick-up truck), and behind the scenes with events, grants, sponsorships, and editing. Email us for more information. You will have fun, meet incredible people of all ages, and help us feed those in need in our community.
