Fall Food Drive
let's come together to help end hunger in south louisiana.
From October 13 - November 14, we are partnering with Second Harvest once more collect donations of needed non-perishable items. Last year, NOMAR members contributed over $5,000 and 11,000 lbs to this worthy cause. Can we top those numbers this year?
