Annually in the fall, we have a clothing giveaway for the community.  Clothing items for adults and children are collected the month beforehand and then sorted for anyone to take what they need.  Some years we partner with community businesses and services to have a fun family event to go along with it such as touch-a-truck.

DONATION OUTREACH

We collect and donated items for area homeless shelters and pregnancy centers.
