With snow in the forecast again, it’s even more important that we “Share the Love” and deliver our annual emergency / blizzard boxes to our homebound seniors. Boxes were filled with nonperishable items in case of extreme weather or power outage when our volunteers may not be able to deliver a meal. Many thanks to the following organizations who donated items and helped assembled the boxes: Hormel Foods, Seneca Foods of Janesville, Culver’s of Beloit, Walgreen’s on Broad Street in Beloit, Tricor Insurance, and North Atlantic Specialty Bag of Beloit. A big shout out to our staff and dedicated volunteers who delivered the boxes today in the frigid cold weather!
