First trip to Neighborhood House!

October 26 - 30, 2015

   Our first group of students had a great time serving at Neighborhood House last week! We are trying to set a regular pace for bringing in items to donate to Neighborhood House, so everyone please try to bring just one item to donate. This way we can have Group 2 show up with hearts to serve and items to give as well! Click here if you want ideas for items to donate. Make it a great week, everyone!
