In response to the May 19th Hanover fire, we thank everyone in the local community who have been there in various capacities to support the victims of this terrible event. The strength of this community shines bright. Thank you for being there for those in need. ❤

If you would like to support the victims, we ask that you refrain from dropping off goods at the temporary shelter. Instead, we ask that you consider the following options:

To donate clothing, please do so at the The Salvation Army Hanover Thrift Store. They are located at 711 – 10th Avenue, Hanover. Their phone number is 519-506-3450.
