The Corner Shelf March Food Drive

Success!

Thanks so much for your generous support for the Corner Shelf, and our neighbors in need. We were able to collect WAY more than our goal, which will be a great blessing to the clients of our food shelf. We appreciate your partnership and support!

(Below is the original information about the food drive.)
