Blessing Boxes (on campus and at Sweeten Creek Mobile Home Park)
The Blessing Boxes are honor system food pantries where people can take food who are in need. Also, this is an easy way for those who want to help others to donate non-perishable food. ... You can always make a donation without sponsorship to the blessing boxes, just stop by the box and leave a Blessing for others. Help stock one of our two little food pantries located on our campus and at Sweeten Creek Mobile Home Park.
