​End of an Era
June 17th, 2023
Over our 40 plus year history of serving the community we have moved several times. We were once housed in places like the old Hospital, then the old Juvenile Hall.
A little over 10 years ago we moved into the Old Gold Street School. In those 10 or so years we have seen many changes and many faces through that door but our mission has never changed or waivered, to help those in need. We look forward to this new chapter in our history. The memories made at the Gold Street location will never be forgotten fellow volunteers we have lost, volunteers who have moved on to other places, friends and clients who have become like family to us stay with us always.
In this move one volunteer from our Juvenile Hall location days remains, working her way up from inventory and putting bags together to now being our Executive Director. Under her leadership the future looks bright on this new chapter.
