Today was a great day with two fun, hard-working corporate volunteer groups on-site. Thank you, Frost and Highland Homes, for your many contributions in readying food for distribution. From receiving to distribution to recycling, you happily did what was needed. Your contributions and partnership are a blessing to Good Sam and the neighbors we serve. We are so grateful for your partnership in #feedinghelpingserving! #beagoodsam ... See MoreSee Less
