… Bring May Flowers

Gather those fresh flowers, open the windows, uncover the pool, and light up the barbecue! It’s the transition from Spring to Summer, from the Season of Renewal and Growth to the Season of Fun, Family, and Freedom! This month, we celebrate the end of the school year, our Love for Mom, and our gratitude for those who fought and sacrificed for our freedoms.

Did you know May is also National Better Sleep Month, Older Americans Month, and Military Appreciation Month? While you’re celebrating the fun that May brings, please take a moment to consider helping some of our Most Vulnerable neighbors, our Seniors, Veterans, and Children, through a donation to one of our programs.

Our Bed Program promotes Better Sleep for those who do not have a bed of their own. Our Air Conditioners and Fans Program benefits Seniors, Veterans, and the Disabled, helping them keep cool and healthy through the upcoming hot months. Our Grocery Cards Program helps Seniors struggling to make ends meet and keep food on their tables.

If you would like to make a monetary donation to any of these programs, please click the “Click Here to Give” button. We also gladly accept item donations, especially A/C Units and Fans in clean, good working condition, and Summer Clothing for Men and Women (any size or style).

We appreciate all the help our neighbors give, and we hope you all have a wonderful start to the Summer!
