In Full Swing
The installation of the new walk-in freezer and refrigerator units is almost complete. We can't wait to put this equipment to full use. After these units are done, we will start work on replacing dilapidated furniture with 20 new tables and 250 chairs, and upgrade and replace a malfunctioning gymnasium partition.
Thank you again to the Mary Morton Parsons Foundation and our generous donors for this grant.
