We are excited to partner once again with the Anne Arundel County Food Bank, #justonesweater, the Luminis Blood Center and the Greater Parole Community Association.

Last year we collected 3,675 pounds of food plus $1100 in monetary donations to the Anne Arundel County Food Bank, 1152 sweaters and 26 successful blood donations.

This year, under event chair FLG20 Eileen Mitchard’s leadership, we look forward to far exceeding last year’s success and we need YOUR HELP!
