CROSS serves hundreds of families each month providing food, clothing, housing support to keep them in their homes during a crisis, home delivered meals through our Meals on Wheels program, school supplies, and now we are preparing for the Thanksgiving and Christmas season to help children and their families have a less stressed holiday by providing extra food and gifts for the children.

 

Your gifts are GREATLY appreciated!

 

Please spread the word and our appreciation!
