​HNS Summer Lunch Program 2021

Picture
As spring starts to make it's way into Monroe County, House of Neighborly Service is gearing up for our Summer Lunch Program! With the pandemic, we anticipate our program growing again this year. Last year we served over 6,000 lunches throughout Monroe County and we were able to do this with donations of food, produce and financial contributions. We are again anticipating our sites for pick up to be in Hecker, Valmeyer, Prairie du Rocher, Columbia and Waterloo. We are so grateful to our partners for helping us distribute in those areas! We are in awe of the generosity of Monroe County businesses, families, organizations, schools and churches who collect donations to help us make this possible. This program is truly Monroe County Neighbors Helping Neighbors!

If you would like to support this program please call our office at 939-8900 or message us here!  If you would like a list of some of the items we are collecting for this program, they are listed below.
