We want to send a big THANK YOU to the Bremen Community and their annual 'Mom-to-Mom' sale. All of the leftover children's apparel and items were made available as a donation to the Neighborhood Center and helped provide needed kids' clothing for our clothing pantry.

Our Clothing Pantry hosted a "Shop 'Til You Drop" Event recently, as a way to clear out our seasonal inventory. Volunteers Marcia Pownell and Sharron Yambrick worked tirelessly to see that clients found just the right items to take home. We distributed over 2200 items of clothing, shoes, and household linens and now have room for all of our fall and winter items.

To accomodate this year's holiday donations, we are in need of off-site storage space. We are asking for free, dry space in the Plymouth area, where we can hold donated food, toys and clothing until the Christmas holiday.  If you have any space to donate, please contact Sara Hill.

Got any plans for those adorable Halloween costumes your kids wore last year? 

We are accepting Halloween Costumes for our 2nd Annual Costume Giveaway! 

Scary or sweet costumes for all ages and in all sizes are welcome. You can donate your gently used costumes during office hours (Monday through Friday, 9 to 4; Wednesday 9 to 7.)

The costumes collected will be made available for distribution starting October 18th through the 27th during Clothing Pantry hours (Tuesdays 9 to noon; Wednesdays 9 to 4; Thursdays 1 to 4.)

Call our office with any questions and thank you for sharing with the families here in our own community. 

The Neighborhood Center is so appreciative of Beacon Credit Union for sponsoring the Project Spotlight and for all of the community members who voted. We are especially grateful for Heather King, who took initiative, got involved, and advocated for our organization, and ultimately, the families we serve.  Our thanks to all!
