What are some adjectives that we use to describe our Egg Hunt and Resource Fair? Well it was wild and it was joyful.
We were able to serve about 380 children from 240 families with multiple resources! It was on the local news on NBC channel 3, CBS channel 8, and Fox 5 (see clip here). Thanks to everyone that made this happen; it was an example of many people coming together to help under served families and children. View a video recap here.
