🌟 Make a Difference: Volunteer Today! 🌟
Sometimes, giving just a little of your time can create a huge impact. Laura Full, Artsbridge Program Coordinator, shares her experience:
"In just two short hours of sorting clothing donations, I met over a dozen homeless individuals. Every single one of them was so gracious and positive, despite the challenges they face daily. The work that House to Home does—and the number of people they support—is nothing short of incredible. Anna Dobbins, House to Home's director, pours her heart into helping those who need it the most. My heart is so full, and I’m so grateful to have met her. Partnering with nonprofit organizations like House to Home and other local charities truly helps build a stronger commUNITY."
