A Big THANK YOU to the St. Tammany Chapter of the DAR for their help packing bags and donating food this week. Contact us if your group would like to help us with our mission to feed hungry children.

St. Tammany Chapter had a fun morning! For National DAR Day of Service, St. Tammany collected and donated food items and packed 100 bags for Backpack Blessings - a local non-profit that provides supplemental nourishment for the weekends to school children who are at risk within the Slidell area.
