Our Loving Village is Here to Help!

During times of uncertainty, Our Loving Village aims to meet needs of the community!   We have partnered with the USDA in a program that will allow us to meet hunger-related needs of children and families who enroll in our meal program at NO CHARGE! No child should ever feel hunger pangs. We hope to reach those in need by providing breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks! This and more is in the works to relieve the disparities in our communities.  For more information on what Our Loving Village will be offering, check out Pandemic Resource page often!
