Love Your Community: Donate To Food Drives, Food Pantries & Blessing Boxes in Shelby County, Indiana




Welcome to our lively blog series celebrating the month of love in Shelby County!


February isn't just about Valentine's Day; it's also a time for us, as parents, grandparents, and families, to show our love and care for our community. As we embrace the spirit of Valentine's Day, let's extend that love beyond our immediate circles and into the neighborhoods we call home.


Throughout this series, we'll explore heartwarming ways to spread love and support within Shelby County.


Today, we're kicking things off by shining a light on the importance of supporting local food pantries. After the festivities of the holiday season, these pantries need our love and generosity to replenish their shelves and continue serving those in need.


Join us as we come together to make February a month of love and compassion for everyone in our community!
