Hello!
Over the past few weeks our hearts have sought ways to make sense of what is happening and we want to find ways to help those struggling. This is an opportunity for Give Chagrin Valley Women's League to fulfill our mission and serve our community. The demand on the food pantries and social service agencies acting as food pantries is huge right now. We will be making some monetary donations and provide you with a list from some of our local organizations. Please let us know if you see any urgent opportunities for us to help in the community and we will gladly share it with our members.
We will get through this together!

Chagrin Falls Park Community
We had the pleasure of speaking with Helyne, who is one of the most wonderful people you will ever meet. This week we will be collecting for Chagrin Falls Park Community Center. They are feeding 28 children lunch every single day and are also helping to feed several families dinner and senior citizens. They are in most need of lunch items: individually packaged snacks, cookies, juice boxes, microwave popcorn. (Mostly nut-free. Basically, what you would buy for your kid's lunch.) Also, any gently used or new board games or puzzles. They are not taking any clothing at this time.
We will be collecting until 10AM Monday April 13th. You can drop off directly to the Park at 7060 Woodland Ave. between 10am-4PM M-Th or to bins on these front porches:
Meagan Armington at 7662 Birchmont Dr.
Ashley Haines at 15 Bellview
Heather Stewart at 126 May Ct.
Sara Giordano at 109 Fox Trail
Brittany Crivelli at 35183 Quartermane Circle
Therese Zdesar at 120 Hunting Trail
We want you to be safe, so you can always add to you instacart order or send items via amazon. Or if you prefer to make a monetary donation: https://fcsserves.org/program/chagrin-falls-park-community-center/
