Our Home Family Resource Center
Our Home Family Resource Center is a nonprofit organization
dedicated to assisting individuals and families in Mercer County who have been victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. They work with families to rebuild parent-child relationships and address financial challenges. Non-perishable food items and personal hygiene products, should be brought to The Club by December 14th.
🎄 The Mercer County Angel Tree 🎄
The Mercer County Angel Tree Program collaborates with churches, businesses, organizations, and individuals in the area to provide gifts for children from income-eligible families in Mercer County. The aim is to ensure that each child receives two toys and one outfit. Last year, the Angel Tree program brought joy to over 900 children across 383 families, with 50 families supported by the South Shore Sportsman Club. Tags for the Angel Tree are now available at The Club, with a drop-off deadline of December 7th.
