Weather Update & Food Distribution Hours
We are keeping a close eye on current weather conditions and the snowstorm expected to arrive on Thursday, which may also affect Friday’s operations. At this time, we plan to be open during our normal distribution hours. However, if conditions become unsafe, we may open late, close early, or close for the day to ensure the safety of our clients, volunteers, and staff. Please only come out if it is safe for you to travel. If there are any changes to our hours, we will share updates as soon as possible.
Thank you for your understanding, and please stay warm and safe during the storm.
