Have you been thinking about volunteering at a local pantry to help our community? Family of Faith Community Church is in need of volunteers on Wednesdays from 4pm-6:30pm. If you show up today to help, please ask for Heather.

Scarlett Johansson and her family relied on public assistance while she was growing up. She credits the ability to have a full plate as something that helped her fuel her love of theater and acting. When people are fed, futures are nourished. We thank PEOPLE Magazine | PEOPLE.com for sharing this incredible partnership!

WOW! WOW! WOW! Our Network has distributed 4 million pounds in Licking County this year.
