We’ve teamed up with them for our donation drive benefiting the Shelter for Help In Emergency tomorrow, October 9th, from 12pm to 2pm outside of the YMCA and if anyone wants to donate but isn’t able to attend the drive tomorrow Kindness Cafe will be accepting donations in advance between 8am and noon.
