NEED A NEIGHBOR OUTREACH PROGRAM

The NEW NEED A NEIGHBOR Outreach Program came to light with the ongoing development of The Straight Ahead Network. A timely opportunity to reach out to the local community became clear and the program emerged.

NEED A NEIGHBOR is now in position to offer goods and services at no out of pocket expense to those experiencing hardship during these distressed times. An assortment of used clothing, household goods and supplies and limited non-parsable food products are available, days and evenings by appointment only. Go to CONTACT US for more information.

This NEW program not only reaches those people and families in need. It offers an opportunity for people to unite behind a cause, promoting civic responsibility by emphasizing the importance volunteerism.
