Blessing Box
What is the Blessing Box?
The Blessing Box is a miniature food pantry located outside our west entrance (Oak Street). The Blessing Box promotes neighbors helping neighbors. Its purpose is to receive food and personal need items from individuals who want to donate and offer those items to people in need. There is no lock on the Blessing Box – it is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
