💛 NEIGHBORS HELPING NEIGHBORS DURING THE SHUTDOWN 💛
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
With the ongoing government shutdown — and the delay and reduction of SNAP (food assistance) benefits — more families are turning to Helping Hands for support. Together, we can make sure no one in Dripping Springs or across Central Texas goes hungry.
If you need assistance, please visit us during pantry hours:
❤️ WEDNESDAYS - 1:00pm - 3:00pm
❤️ THURSDAYS - 4:30pm - 6:30pm
