Ridge Early Childhood Center sponsors food drive for local pantry

Students at Ridge Early Childhood Center are sponsoring a food drive from December 9 through 16.

Since opening, the pantry has been used every single day, by anyone who is in need. It could be your neighbor! It is open 24/7 and has been sustained through the generosity of many families in the community.
