There are kids in our community that need our help!
We love kids and want to see them succeed in their studies and have the things
that they need. Sadly, there are many homeless and needy students in our area
who don't even have access to some of the basics. In an effort to help, we've
partnered with the Shelton School District to provide new backpacks, shoes,
socks and underwear to students in need. If you are able to help us in this effort,
please drop off donations to either of our office locations. Feel free to chat a
little while while you're there...we also love good conversation with friends!
