We Love What We Do
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT
In the unprecedented age of Covid-19, many businesses have closed their doors and nonprofits are seeing donations drop significantly. However, the need for life’s essentials have increased. The long-term impacts of COVID-19 aren’t over—some aren’t even known yet. This is a time to practice the Art of Gratitude. We are grateful for our volunteers. We are grateful for our donors. We are grateful for the impact we have made throughout the pandemic. There is always light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how dark the ride may be we stand with you. Ready to help. Ready to fight.
Tiera McKinley – Executive Director
