🎁✨ Holiday Helpers in Action! ✨🎁

A huge thank you to First Response Plumbing & Excavation and Bailey & Wood Mortgage Lender for generously donating the postage needed to get our Family Service donor letters in the mail this week!

They showed up like true holiday elves, jumping in without hesitation and putting community first. Because of their support, we are able to reach hundreds of families, partners, and donors who make our mission possible.

We are so grateful for local businesses who care deeply about strengthening families and supporting Bartholomew County. ❤️

Thank you, First Response and Bailey & Wood, for your kindness, partnership, and community spirit.
