ALGC Donates to Community Resource Services (CRS) December 2021

Once again, ALGC once again celebrated the holiday season by making donations to CRS which hopefully will make the holidays a little merrier for others in the community. Last year, holiday donations -including cash and gift cards- totaled more than $4000! It’s was a joy and an honor to be a part of such generosity! This year’s donation reached nearly $5000 and included baskets and bags of all kinds, including spa baskets, movie night treats, soup supper, and more. Members of the group that helped deliver the donations on December 10 are shown in the photo below.
