Thinking about hitting the grocery store this week? We are looking for some Thanksgiving supples! It may seem early, but with the decrease in donations and difficulty placing orders we are starting NOW!

Donations can be purchased at ShopRite in Brodheadsville and placed in their donation bin (to the left of the door at checkout) or brought directly to our location (2334 Route 209, Sciota PA) on Mondays and Fridays between 8am-11am.

If you’d prefer to make an online donation, use: https://pven.kindful.com/

Thank you for your continued support! … See more

Have you received your Economic Impact Payment? For most people it was $1200 per person plus $500 per child. It went out to everyone they had on record back in June, but if you didn’t get one because you don’t file taxes based on your income level – they didn’t have your info to send you a check.
Click the link below to go to the IRS page that lets you enter your address and info to qualify for the payment – scroll down to the BLUE “Enter Your Information Here” button
