With all the heat waves and crazy weather, our lawns and gardens were in desperate need of some help. Thankfully, our friends over at MNP were able to come by this week and lay some new sod at our family shelter, making a huge difference to our building and the experience those accessing shelter have🩵

Thank you MNP for all the gardening and yard work you have done for us, your support makes a huge impact on our community and we appreciate all your hard work🩷🩵
