Due to the cancellation of local schools in our area, we reached out a hand to our community and asked them to provide us with a list of businesses donating meals to those children in need. It is so comforting to know kiddos will have full bellies during the next few weeks.
*We will continue to update this list so please check back regularly. As always, we recommend that you double-check the details as they are subject to change. And if you know of a local business or school that should be added here, please email [email protected]
