Garry Friend
, President of NHN, stated, “The increase in the number of families we serve, has created the need for more space, more equipment and the need to purchase more food. NHN is fortunate to be in a locality where there are Foundations and Corporations which see value in giving back to the community. It is with their financial support we are able to purchase equipment which enables efficient and increased storage capabilities, as well as, equipment to keep a clean food environment. Grants of this nature, allow us to use donated community funds for the ongoing purchase of food. It’s special to receive these during the season of giving. We are truly blessed and humbled in being awarded these three grants.”
