Kyle Mahan is the food service director at Grandview schools. He has given us many snacks and treats as a result of the Covid-19 school closings.

Upper Arlington Schools also made a donation as a result of the COVID-19 school closings, donating a total of 45 lbs of chips for our clients.

Pictured here is Julie Richards, Director of K-5 Ministry, donating 50 Birthday Bags. Each of these bags is filled with a box of cake mix, icing, napkins, plates, and lastly a handmade birthday card for Heart to Heart clients. All of these bags were put together by the children and families of Midweek Missions of First Community Church.

Thank you to the Orben and family for their generous gift 94 lbs of food and non-food items, and 19 birthday bags to give out to our clients.

Michael Tillis, from Telephone Pioneers of America, brought in their donation of face masks.
